I truly am sad that @logiczombie leaves. I always was looking forward to his postings. I am here since 2017 and saw many many people come and go. I got hyped in the beginning but then it wore itself out and I am still here for reading during my first morning coffee instead of polluting myself through "social media".
Yes, one recognizes quality when one reads/sees it. Your articles are always very well researched and high effort. Though I am not always having the same view, I highly appreciate them.
Comments nowadays are low and that is also a sign that people are not very interested in the contents itself. I for my part, am not willing to go around and beg for attention. I read what interests me and visit my favorite bloggers once in a while.
Cheers. This discussion once again proved what it is all about. People are not dumb and cannot be fooled.
edit: While thinking about comments and how low they are, it must not be a bad sign or a sign of disinterest. Sometimes people just read something but don't want to comment. Where are actually the "eyes", they disappeared some day, so one could see how many readers (or viewers) an article was having.
don't worry, i'll still post on HIVE.
i'll be blurting everything stream-of-consciousness on my discord.
i'll be posting vids on odysee and THETA and ROKU (and ewetoobz).
and for all those read-only readers who just read and don't like to comment (INTP), even something as simple as a "." would do wonders for people like me who feel like they're screaming into the void.
i think they're just afraid to post a "." comment or even a "thanks" because HIVEWATCHERS will flag them as "spam".
I have tried to go to the discord channel and get you there, but I was not successful.
"Screaming into the void", yeah, I know this feeling. I often feel alone even though people are near me.
Being afraid that the watchers may downvote is not good. I would ignore it. I can't understand why people make victims out of themselves so easily. That is self-zensoring, don't you think?
Odysee I am beginning to explore. Many u-tubers switch to that place. What is your channel there?
people are already afraid to open up at all.
and being punished for no discernable reason, with no trial by some rag-tag mob of self-appointed vigilantes who refuse to explain themselves creates a toxic CONFORMIST environment.
especially when they could and should simply MUTE users they disagree with.
blurt is vastly superior.
discord is vastly superior.
odysee is vastly superior.
THETA IS VASTLY SUPERIOR.
can you give me some links to the referred platforms?
Thank you :)
Disagreeing with opinion is okay, what is not okay, is punishing. Downvotes are punishments, yes. It cannot be tolerated. When one is in inferior position it's good to speak out. As it was done in many cases here on hive. I have no idea what to do, other than to blog what is important to me. I can only concentrate on a handful of people here, which I hold dear and who interest me resp. what they have to say. It's often a very valuable source of information.

"blurtter" is a fork of hive that is almost identical in every way except no downvoting.
and because it's a fork, you probably already have an account (use your hive keys to logon).
here's a sample conversation with @practicalthought,
after exploring this together.
perhaps we can agree that there is a "something" that is pre-intellectual, that motivates our thoughts and conscious aims.
maybe not "emotion" if you don't like that word.
it's probably "pre-emotional" or "sub-emotional" or "proto-emotional".
a lot more traffic than on hive. Very good.
of course there are awesome people here.
and that's why i'll continue to blog here.
but i'm taking my investment somewhere slightly less oligarchical.
