I totally agree with you that it is time to take sides. The HF that Justin has planned will put Power Down to 1-3 days. This will totally screw content creation. The same stake could actually vote several times a same post. This might break the blockchain as we know it. It lights of this, I want to vote for the witnesses that ensured the steem that I liked so far to work properly.
I've used all my 30 votes from all my accounts. Hope everybody does the same. Remember that steemit has lost long standing employees today who actually knew how the blockchain works. Does anybody at steemit / tron know how steem works?
In the organizational work environment, there is a premise that involves a lot of reality:
"Nobody is essential"
Although it sounds unpleasant right now, this is an absolute reality. We are all replaceable.
Certainly, "nobody is indispensable" is something that I have heard other times, in addition to that they usually accompany it when they refer to codes with "if they do not know how a code works, they can always study it or decide to write a new code that does what it is needs to"
Certainly it is.
But, we will continue waiting to see how things turn out.
I absolutely agree with you.
9 old witnesses are back :) wow. I'm amazed and so curious how will it all play out now
Either way, this conflict will probably only escalate
Again... JS 20 witnesses are NOT witnesses... they are fake accounts which were created for deliberated move to control the chain. A witness has to have a certain level of conditions and preparations to be worth to be called that. Not just set up a node and activate the block production.
Great seeing everyone voting! =) This is going to be historical for STEEM.
