Serious question, how are we supposed to make informed votes on this

Hi Zach,

I agree that the screenshot you’ve shown is quite a mess. Somehow it hasn’t rendered properly on your device. If you try reloading it it might possibly come good. Proposal details can usually be seen using either the NNS Dapp or the IC Dashboard. The dashboard link for this one is https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/proposal/133397 and it should display something like this:

You can see which teams have grants to review and recommend votes on some of the topics in this post. Reviewing some of these proposals in full is obviously quite time-consuming, hence the grants. (I’m part of the CodeGov team.) All of these teams (or individuals) are linked to a known neuron. Elsewhere in the “Grants for voting neurons” thread you can find each team’s description of how they operate and how they vote. In the dashboard link for the proposal, if you scroll down you can see “Votes of Known Neurons” showing how each of these has voted. If you click on the neuron name you can see that neuron’s full voting history. What we’d also like to see is for every proposal in the funded topics to include a link to a Forum post discussing the proposal and showing the reviews, but unfortunately this is not yet happening consistently.

For other neurons there should have been at some stage a proposal to add them as a known neuron, usually accompanied by a Forum post. Jerry’s post is here.

Hope that helps!
