But do you think that's the main reason Hive is failing? I agree that the Reddit user pointed out a major problem but that should can't be the reason for downward price actions?
It is also that is just now with what Inleo is doing that we are actually connecting with the outside, and creating things that can actually capture the interest of the people on crypto and normies as well.
And VSC is also just now creating something similar to the EVM...
But even when Inleo and VSC are creating the tech and social space for that, some people that doesn't like to see Hive expand beyond its own walls take on their hands to punish people for not following some "unwritten" rules... silly, but that does drive social users away.
It's not a blockchain thing, because Hive is free and censorship resistant on a technical level.
It's projects and individuals that take on their hands the role to patrol what other users do.
Some of those rules are not posting more than once or twice on 24 hours, only doing original personal content because academic content can be considered by some plagiarism, or just not deserving of votes, even with the sources. And stuff like that that make no sense and not everyone endorse, but those individuals annoy and drive away the users
Now, I see. This is the advantage of diversity. What some people find worthy of support, others may find worthless. Diversity should be a strength rather than a weakness. Unfortunately, some people can't just keep their hands to themselves when they disagree with you. When such people have a high stake in a POS platform like Hive, they bully by downvoting.
There is some advantages for downvotes in some cases, but it doesn't compensate the damage some users can cause. They are not that many tho, so it's possible to never cross paths with them, but still they are annoying.
I also thing that a person has the right to vote whatever they want, they made an investment on Hive for a reason. So even a "bad post" having a nice vote is not a big deal in my books.
There was a time on Hive when a picture of a banana without any accompanying texts got to the trending page and amassed a huge amount of reward. When someone visits Hive, the trending page is the first thing they'll see. Seeing the image of a banana doing that well may pass the wrong information about the platform. Especially when well-crafted original posts hardly have any rewards on them.
Downvoting is essential to prevent abuse. But the downvoting also needs to be policed. The dilemma of a decentralized system.
If they are selling to develop, it would be understandable. I know a couple of witnesses whose contributions are important for the stability of the chain. The silent mover, hardly post about it. Also, I know some may be just getting funded for nothing.

Now, I'm getting lost. What are the unwritten rules? I guess that's a kind of blockchain politics.

Constant selling also, but why are they selling?
Mostly top 20 witnesses, DHF proposals and bitter old school users like myself lol
