In previous round, many of us made mistakes. Let's see them and avoid it. Preparing is the best way to hit the goal

I invited friends to work on retroPGF3 before the announcement, but mostly started when Optimism said to submit works 🫠

✅ So, this time, it's better for us to understand and prepare ourselves little by little in advance, rather than waiting until the last minute.

retroPGF stands for retro public good funds. "Funds" here represent the positive impact previously achieved.

❌ Rushed work during application = no/low impact likely be skipped.

The criteria for retroPGF4 likely will be similar to round 3. Take a quick look at this before brainstorming ideas.

There's a trend of steadily increasing rewards.

For devs, max out your skills.

For non-devs:
✅ Clear, measurable work.
✅ Originality over translation.
✅ Non-ENG content's okay.
✅ Public good on ETH/Base counts.
✅ Include supportive numerical data in submissions.
✅ Aggregate links to your work.
✅ For devs creating apps, specify usage metrics from when it started.

❌ A few tweets' links might not yield substantial results.
❌ Just linking a Twitter account may misguide reviewer(aka badgeholders).

This thread might seem a bit irregular. I'm trying to highlight the points people might miss. Last year, we missed a lot, don't want to miss out again this year! Reducing mistakes = entering the win zone. PS: Engaging in retroPGF means long-term dedication!
