As an outsider, is this really the way you guys want to promote hive?
I come back after years. After reading Sun drama on decrypt and see there was a fork to hive with more drama frozen balances, dangers of dpos. While hive has its own nftshowroom. Would be better if they were supported.
It's just sad, there is no Utopian now, look where GitCoin is at now. No foundation. Busy has gone. First shot was Dlive now hive turned his back to dtube. Who on steem didn't use steemworld once. Nope steemchiller no room for you. That's really sad. Hive seems to not care his own population at all as its ancestor. Whales are the same whales only care about maximizing their ROI. The only project I could find was steemhunt, and the quality is yeah.. Bots carrying content from producthunt.
I don't know man. After all of these, hive trying to get some spotlight with practically stolen nft art? Anyways it was nice to be able to talk without the fear of getting into a blacklist. I know these words ain't gonna move a needle but yeah.
Let the downvotes rain.
Punks have gotten universal on all chains, these have some uniqueness to it afaik. It's kind of like forks I assume.
For everything else, dlive fucked off way before sun and ended up in sun's pocket anyway after blowing their load on pewdiepie. Steemchiller wasn't supported as steemworld was closed sourced, doesn't happen with all closed sourced projects (see peakd) but majority won't get DHF support so he decided to stick with steem, probably doing well there as the only competetend developer, though I doubt he's developed anything since.
As far as caring about the population, I can tell you hands on curation has never been better, even on the current linear curve where selling votes would technically be possible the community has learned that that's not the way and curation is happening and being spread out wide, take a look at trending daily how many new accounts end up there. I wouldn't say everyone's in it just for their own ROI, but if you look at Steem you may see what that actually looks like and a broken curation system without a care.
I see, didn't know about it. I'd still rather see hive supporting their own artists. Building their own functioning art marketplace. Rather than exchanging in between whales. That's how it seemed to me at least at first sight.
About dlive or others, I'm not trying to defend their owner's behaviors. When dlive was gone, I've read at least 5 posts about replacing it wouldn't take a week, years later there is no streaming platform. I couldn't find a new developed project on hive except buymeberries which already looks like abandoned. And outside of here people are looking for kind of solutions. Me for example, jumping in between publish0x, bsv etc to see if there is anything to replace fiat based platforms. Hive seems to be the most applicable one but I wonder why no one dare or care to develop here.
TBF before I was gone, taskmaster was spreading good vibes and to my surprise he or she still does, mesmerizing. Yes, feed is looking better than steem but it's still looks like a whale's diary.
Appreciate that you didn't take it personal. Maybe things have changed.
Check out nftshowroom, has existed for a long time, aside from curation I'd say most artists do better here than elsewhere, where it's mostly a small % earning anything from artwork sales.
Exactly what I'm trying to say. Beeple wasn't the choosen one nor has the Picasso's talent. If you (whales) create your own whales through your own nft marketplace. Hive may have a better chance of getting the spotlights. Me checking it out with my 2 hives won't change a thing. That's all. Thanks for your time.
Lots changed... and actually when I see helpful comments about trying to "open up to a wider, let's look at all" it kind of makes a huge difference.
Fighting just because, does not get anyone anywhere. Collaboration and cooperation with a bit of competition is the right way to go. There will be WAY more copies either from someone copying things from HIVE or people raising projects on HIVE from "similar" things on other chains. Its the way of life... And there is nothing wrong with that in my view.
Also, just because someone does not agree with a comment or a view, that does not have (or should not have) to necessarily lead to a downvote. Same thing the other way around.
For example, I didn't upvote @acidyo on this post as I, in my view already think he has enough rewards for the post, but I have upvoted him on the comment above, because for me its worth more value I am interested in for this chain.
I think people change eventually because we all learn what's worth or not fighting for.
