I think you're right about 2022 lessening the resistance. It's inevitable, really.
For a while there I'd respond to some of the hate and uncertainty on twitter, trying to be reasonable. And every reply just drew more and more haters out of the wood work. People get really insecure when they're presented with something that can shake up their worldview. And insecure people get defensive and irrational.
Now I figure I'll just focus on making content on hive, and letting people know that I'm always up for a chat if they're curious. If they're not curious, nothing I can say will sway them anyway.
Keep playing, keep accumulating. Be ready to welcome folks to the community when they finally see what's really happening. I think that's probably better than twitter fights, lol. At least it's better for my blood pressure.
