I really can't see a hard fork not being approved. Closest we came was hf20, but that was a patch and fix in place. What's the alternative? - hold functionality back?, change things? Rewrite? Halt? Can't really split like other crypto.
It won't change my behaviour. I'll continue to upvote comments on my posts and others. I do fair amount of manual curration and will continue.
As you were, carry on.
Nah, the community stopped HF17, they had to go back and rewrite it.
