RE: Daily Steem Stats Report - @steemit is powering down (and up)
I agree. It is the blockchain, and the transparency should extend beyond just seeing people's transactions. It should include what's happening and when.
Maybe we are just pawns. Or maybe it's such a routine thing they figured someone here would explain it, or that we'd all just get it. Or maybe they're too busy to say, "Hey, it's STEEM moving time."
Unfortunately, it leaves those of us who aren't in the know about any of these things, still wondering. And the tendency is to think the worst, which might not be fair, but what do you expect from a crowd whose primary makeup are people fed up with a rigged, unrewarding system?
I get the feeling, though, we need to be sitting on steemit.chat or a few discord channels to get answers, though I can't verify that. Every time I go to the chat, I can't really tell who all might be having a conversation. And what I see, isn't worth digging through :)
I am sitting on the discords hard. The only thing that kinda changed is that RTL tags now work. I've been going on about it for months. Still, having some kind of community input and discussion is what decentralization is about. So when the big boys move sums like this around, we the smaller fish just get caught in the waves they makes.
