You have a wonderful smile @buezor! It was cool seeing all of the excitement on your last day :)
As far as the fork, it happens periodically from what I understand, the developers have to update the coding every so often to keep things running smooth! As of right now Hive is fully decentralized with no one strong enough to influence it- which is what went wrong with steemit. So, breathe easy, no danger here :)
The things in the fork that will help new people are- RC delegations, and all votes pay out now (no more dust threshold).
As far making time for hive... I have no idea, I think mom superpowers lol- I'll lend you some of mine 🤣
I could use a lot of that mom superpowers of yours even if I'm no dad and I don't plan on switching genders anytime.
