Congratulations on the budget. I still believe in Utopian's mission and although I'm not sure of the internals anymore of the issues you're facing, I'm just here willing to offer my support in ways within my capacity. Keep strong and just look back to what you're doing this for.
Hi diego, good update I like the transparency that Utopian always has given about what the company is doing and how the status is.
Iam totally convinced that Utopian is the right way to go therefore my full support goes to that cause.
and btw failures and mistakes are an important part of every success.
Just keep on going!

Sad to hear.
"either we would succeed on Indiegogo or we would shut down the project."
I thought this campaign's goal was just to reach a broader audience and not to fund the actual project. It may or may not fail to reach people but I feel like you are judging a great idea/project with the result of this "marketing" campaign, which seems odd to me.
I've read the feedbacks on other posts which were pretty reasonable, As others said this should be just a simple lesson to take and move on. I still believe that Utopian could be a place where open source lovers can gather around and collaborate together even without incentives. So failing on a funding campaign doesn't mean that the project is a failure.
There is one thing I'm concerned about, that is, you are talking about changes on the team. And even I don't believe, I hope at least this time, it's going to be in the right direction. Not the opposite.
Good luck.
I'm glad to see some level of relief through this post compared to the previous one.
Everybody make mistakes, so you don't have to blame yourself too much. It may seem to you that utopian isn't doing well as other projects on the steem block chain, but the fact is this....""Utopian is the best project on the steem block chain"" as far as I'm concerned. Take it or leave it.
There is always hard times. You've passed through it, so what you've endured in the past is more than what you have to endure to make Utopian colony a reality.
I wish you all the best in all your endeavor.
Stay strong and keep marching forward. The project helps many :) Thank you.
Awesome news!! The weekly meeting will be a much happier one tomorrow :D
Team - I feel the project has potential to be in the main stream and replace the remote work. ie, even beyond the Open Source projects. This project can replace the likes of Upwork and CrossOver in a very decentralized model. I am quite sure that the short term issues will be sorted out.
I don't have much financial power to help, but if there is something like handling your witness server or so where you are spending money, I can pitch in without any financial commitment.
Congrats! It's amazing to see @freedom stepping in here and making this generous donation <3 Don't be to hard on yourself, we're all learning and are all growing up to become awesome Steemians, developers, product owners... Steem is our playground and it looks like something amazing is coming from your part. Cheers!
Utopian is a great project, I really like it, I supported it until I was not selected as translator on DaVinci, today is not possible to be a translator there if you are not "friend of someone", aka corruption.
And doing graphic design was a very acid process, because it was full of insufferable moderators, aka assholes.
Anyway, I still think Utopian is a great idea, and I would love to participate in the future.
Good to hear @elear. Keep up the great work!
