Published reasoning
Mensah Adzo
West Africa
“Five percent more to host communities means an extra €15 per broadcast in 2025. That is not nothing. The platform absorbed worse margins for six months last year; it can absorb this.”
Priya Sharma
South Asia
“I share the spirit of this proposal but I believe the platform's ability to keep ambassador stipends competitive depends on the current split. I would support a 72% share, but 75% is too sharp a cut into operational coverage.”
Anika Halonen
Northern Europe
“The 70% has held for three years. The platform has stabilised. It is the right moment to push the share upward.”
Two Bears Walking
North America
“I abstain because the communities I represent are split on this, and I do not feel right voting one way for them when the rooms I sat in this week were divided.”
