FYI: your feedback is heard. 

TLDR: many users, not much OP.  There is also a bug that's being worked on.

Important context: 
Zora received this OP as part of RetroPGF funding and we voluntarily decided to distribute this to users.

This is only 300K OP (~$740K), and Zora has had well over 1M addresses. There's only so many addresses that we can meaningfully distribute to (~27 OP minimum). In this case it was around ~3,900. We'll share the criteria in detail shortly.

There have been some issues on the claim site with wallet connection that are being fixed as we speak, so double check later as well.

Taking the L (learnings) here for the future.

No good deed goes unpunished 

This is more true in crypto than anywhere

One of the main cultural defects of our industry is a strong sense of entitlement from users, often amplified by large farmers running sybil accounts

Counterpoint is that many crypto founders are knowingly making a Faustian bargain — they ask for many people to distribute for them, often times in the hope/expectation of being repaid by airdrops (or retail liquidity) in future. 

(I’m not saying it’s wrong, I just don’t feel particularly bad for founders)

my takeaway is that whatever failings there were with the airdrop was less about the $$ and more about creators in the ecosystem not feeling 'seen.' that the cultural NFT gold standard was out of step with their users, going back to the abrupt rehauling of their NFT contracts and there's probably still some latent anger about that.

sure, agreed, but also why did Zora apply for and receive public goods funding in the first place as a VC-backed private company? not really the definition of a public good that needs funding
