@andrewrk You link to an issue but all the comments regarding bounties have been deleted, so it's hard to see what discussions led to this decision and why bounties seem so damaging.

Not disagreeing with the choice, but the context would have been nice to know (maybe a summary somewhere?), especially in order to help other communities avoid the same pitfall.

(but don't spend anymore time on this topic than you'd like to, please ignore me unless you want really want to explain more)
