Welp, it's official. As of the time of me posting this, Hive has become 24 hours old. How exciting! π₯³
Lots to do, lots to build, lots to come!
We have quite a lot of progress to be made on our front. I've seen the community migrate, developers start planning, and already a few projects get updated! This is pretty exciting stuff for our first 24 hours π
Spencer has been quite the active blogger!
I've literally posted one - two - three - FOUR! ( including this one ) blog posts in the last 24 hours. All Hive exclusives! I'll slow back down now & try posting on a more spaced out & less chaotically frequent schedule. It's been a fun launch day π
How are you feeling?
I understand there has been some confusion, some hiccups, and some broken hearts.
It's tough to do a community split. That is not lost on anybody. What happened, imo, had to happen. Obviously it would have been nice to just generate all this excitement & renewed energy for Steem, but alas that platform has become corrupted.
Perhaps that's the healthy way of thinking: Corruption.
Instead of thinking about Steem as being "dead", let's reframe our perspective & consider it "corrupted". You know, like when you go to download some software but it's malware & corrupts your computer? What do you do then? Throw out the whole PC and buy a new one? No, of course not! In the worse case scenario ( which this was ), you format, re-download your OS, and setup a new account.
We fixed the glitch
Steem isn't dead, we just had to reboot!
But don't worry! You didn't lose your files! You were a smart cookie πͺ and you managed to backup your files before rebooting. And that's where we are now, on a fresh install with all of your files, and hopefully friends!
Now that we have a fresh start, you gotta make it count!
We don't get to pull this off too many more times ( some would argue this was the only time ), so we gotta dust off our brains π§ and make this new platform EXACTLY what we've always wanted. Here's some good news: You are now free to do just that! Post what you want, make what you want, consume what you want.
Happy Hiving!

I'm feeling great. Glad to see the people who I've engaged with the most are all here.
have a great Sunday!
Yes, it's very awesome to see most of the community switching over :^)
