Probably because Steem isn't actually very decentralized and those in power here downvote them for aggrandizement. It's a pretty hostile platform for some people, and that needs to be fixed.
I should clarify. I'm talking about the distribution of SP, not the technical design. Hopefully Steemit will dump enough stake that it will become increasingly decentralized, but so far I think Steemit has maintained about 40-45% or more. That data is a bit stale, as I grabbed it poking around Steemsql a week or two ago.
If anyone has a convenient site up to watch SP percentages of top accounts I haven't found it yet.
The post declined rewards and was downvoted. It won't be hidden. Downvoting is not censorship because it does remove the content. In some ways it doesn't even make it harder to find.
Ned and Dan have been having a little hissy fit over this shit and Dan is pretending to be "the bigger man".
You would think someone with so much in the works for EOS wouldn't have time for petty squabbles but it is becoming clear that is not true.
Whatever Dan. Take your petty shit off the platform
I have also read most of the comment/post fight between @Dan and @Ned. But I found Ned with more childish behavior which is never a good reflection of anyone and someone who is CEO of steemit?lol. If dan was pretending to be a bigger man Ned has't left anything to take Dan down(at least on steemit). Seems like Ned comes to steemit only to comment or downvote on dan or EOS, otherwise he loves twitter more than anything lol.
They are both ridiculous for representatives of a company.
I am not picking sides to say who is bigger. Im just saying they are both stupid right now. And posting on Steem that you wont be posting on Steem anymore (not the first time Dan has made such an announcement) is a bit silly also.
This is clearly saying that Medium is a better place to have a blog on. The sad thing is that it is coming from its founder.
IMO, this is a big blow to steem!

@dan's vote proves you are right and that was his motivation.

Where can I learn more about the decentralization issue?

here you go https://steemwhales.com/
Looks like it's out of date. Do you know who runs the site?
that's the most detailed site on steem blockchain. I don't remember having seen any that came that close to the level of information you see there.
I see it is a few months old. I figured out @heimindanger was the creator (he is doing dtube too). I just left him a comment.

I think you miss-understand the situation. Block One has made the choice to move to medium. It is strategic and there is nothing petty about it.
Oh and there is no question about who is the bigger man. Ned's behaviour has been ridiculous.

The whole situation is ridiculous.
I definitely agree with you.This is not such a place.There must be an environment of peace and free

I guess, internal agreements and peace. It's a good thing.
