You should have stayed with your regular posts.
These are my "regular" posts - Everything I've written & video'd over the years has always been whatever was alive for me at the time, whatever I was excited about or researching.
You were earning good money.
If you'd ever read anything I wrote, or watched any of my videos, you'd know that money is the last thing I'm concerned with; as you can clearly see from my 5+ year history on the chain, I post less the more my posts are making - because money is a disincentive for me.
Now you get into this and see where we have arrived.
This is the most fun I've had on Hive/Steem in many years.
I'm no longer worried about putting out regular content, or content at all.
I'm no longer spending hours every day answering questions and on-boarding people to Hive, playing along with the fantasy that this place is even remotely decentralized.
I keep giving the totalitarians like yourself opportunity after opportunity to show people what you're really like, and y'all keep digging your hole deeper and deeper.
Your call, man.
Yep, and I'm going to keep posting little bits and pieces, to help show people who are new or haven't dug in much, just how centralized and controlled this platform is, until the moment that it stops being enjoyable to do so.
Cheers! Man.
If you don't worry about money or rewards then you have no reason to worry about downvote. Think about it, it just removes and redistribution of rewards. When I DV you or anyone else, I don't make any money.
But when you know a post will be downvoted and you vote with a curation tool, that tool lose money for the delegators.
The content of your current post, both BT and Smooth explained clearly what HBD and Hive inflation protection is, I have nothing to add to that. But since you don't care about hive and leaving (as you mentioned) it has no impact on you. So regardless you are cool, and I really do not see any conflict personally.
So I like to wish you happy holidays and happy new year.
Cheers again!
As I've made abundantly clear at every step along the way - this is about what I see as malicious and censorship-seeeking downvoting of a variety of users (many of whom I knew nothing about until I started calling this out.) - not about my rewards, or downvotes against me.
If I cared about down-votes on my content, do you think I would be continuing to post about these things - knowing that every post will get massively down-voted.
I guess that sort of thing matters for people running delegations schemes, and trying to maximize APR.
My goal is, and has always been, sharing the stake that I have the keys to as widely and efficiently as possible.
I did care about Hive - FAR TOO MUCH - for many years. It has been amazingly freeing to be so fully disillusioned, and to actually be having fun here again for the first time in years, because of it.
You as well, many blessings on you and your family!
