RE: Happy Birthday Steem, 4-Years-Old Today

in #steem5 years ago

Best of luck. I'm disgusted with Steemit and their deciding who I can see, who I can vote for. Disgusted that if Justin gets his way, according to his own words when he came in declaring his dictatorship, that he will destroy Steem and convert everyone over to some Tron side shit. Who knows if anyone in the US will be able to do anything with it, the exchange he partially owns wont touch anyone here period. But enough on why I'm shaking the dust off for the most part. If you don't cross over, it was a pleasure encountering you here. I've enjoyed reading many of your posts. I'll still be dropping in from time to time to maybe vote until my powerdown is complete. I figure things will be more decided in those 9 weeks or so.

Sort:  

That's hilarious that you bought into that... Since we already were banning people from the SteemIt, Inc front end and what those people were told is their posts still show up on other front-ends and are in the blockchain. I love how people change the story to fit their view.

I am not a fan of Justin at all. But the smear campaign and lack of logic and consistency is part of the reason I have my doubts on how both projects will do.

Has SteemIt ever censored / hid posts that are just simply talking about other platforms before?

As far as I'm aware, SteemIt ( before the JSUN drama ) has only ever hid posts that are outright spam, plagiarism, and illegal content.

Well Ned downvoted all EOS content for a while, so while they weren't "blocked" it was basically the same thing.

Also those who were blocked from SteemIt.com (many of them) have hostile intentions. So, is justin supposed to ignore that, while they are literally trying to break his investment? I am not taking his side, just trying to view it from his point of view as well.

I don't see this being at all similar. If you wanted to read the articles that Ned downvoted, you still were able to on SteemIt. What you're describing is just Ned using a feature of this platform. You're allowed to downvote as you see fit. I would've probably disagreed with his downvotes & think he's being highly immature for doing so, but this is no way comparable to actually hiding content.

Also those who were blocked from SteemIt.com (many of them) have hostile intentions. So, is justin supposed to ignore that

Literally yes. I don't care if Justin hates it, hurts his investment, or anything else. The entire point of having a decentralized platform like this is that dissenting opinions are allowed. Justin hid stuff he's afraid of, that makes me not trust SteemIt at all. It's as simple as that.

I understand looking at things from differing point of views, but the practice doesn't end there. When you see this whole situation from Jusitn's point, you realize he's an unstable man baby who can't think logically & operate calmly.

Hi there

I've been reading through many comments related to new hive chain and I've seen your comment too. Many users are being torn, however majority seem to be moving to new hive.

Are you fully moving there or will you stay on both chains? Just curious. I'm trying to figure out what to do myself.

I'm pretty much fully switching over to Hive. I prefer my chains to be decentralized & uncensored.

The only posts I may end up making on Steem are copy & pastes from Hive, but basically my main focus is Hive. I'm building for Hive, writing for Hive, and championing for Hive.

Hope to see you on there! :^)

Big Thx for your reply. I think i will stick around on both chains for time being.

I also figured that you may find this post interesting and worth your time:
