At the very least, it's more crossposting nonsense.

Theyre faking payouts. Thats what i meant.

Just replied to your comment below. We are not "faking payouts", you just can't see the APX rewards if you are not viewing the post from inside the appics app.

Lol, I can feel your power ( Negative + Jealousy ).

What's wrong with cross-posting? Have you been on APPICS, have you used the App? Just curious why so much negativity.

Crossposting is not inherently bad.

Taking traffic away from Hive may not be beneficial. Then again, if APPICS is as good as they say, it could be mutually beneficial.

On the other hand, there have been complaints from others (to me and some of those I work with) that the dapp reeked fake models and possible ID thefts. I have never investigated that allegation or do I really care to dive into it.

I stayed away from Instagram a long time ago. It's not my type of thing.

Fair enough, I agree it is not for everyone but the similarities to IG are one approach to get more users into the social crypto space. Regarding ID thefts, yes that was a big problem in the past, as it is very easy just to copy/paste plagiarism from conventional social media sites. However, for several months now we increased the ambassador team and one duty is to verify accounts. Due to this effort, we are ahead of the catfishes for the moment and we will continue improving the fight. For now, the community is mostly healthy and I see a great advantage to introduce new user as well to HIVE and its other dapps if they want to extend their interactions beyond posting photos. I see a great potential in it. Have a good day and don't hesitate to contact me if you want to know anything else about APPICS in the future.

me too, concidering that its the only instagram like app on chain? Theres most proberbly just some background facts we dont know, politics I believe its called

Why so much hate? You haven't even tried the app. You seem not to know every detail of how it works, so why you just dump your negativity here on a positive post for HIVE. Many have been waiting for this step and all you come up is 'stay on Steem'. Give it a try, the APPICS community is supportive and overall full of positivity. I am sure you will like it.
