You can't blame people for wanting to open their wings and/or explore more possibilities :D

I envisioned something like a whaleshares or a blurt or one of the other random clones. I guess Steem is one now too. Wasn't that Dlive thing a part of this community as well? There's a few others but I can't think of it now.

Well dlive had a huge delegation from Ned so you can't really compare the two. Dlive leeched the ecosystem and the investors who actually bought steem. Tribes don't do that.

Whaleshares was run by hippie idiots that chased of investors. And blurt was essentially hive just minus the downvoted and all the burdens that come with hive (e.g. still the unfair token distribution, thanks to a the fuck ups by ned and friends)

Yeah. I remember being pissed with Dlive. Whaleshares and Blurt just seemed like content dumping grounds. There was another platform that was recently sold or something and I guess it shut down. Some old members of this community were there but I can't remember the name or the details.

Whalesshares was a bit refreshing and I was quite excited about it at first. But then they removed the flags, and then chased off investors and said idiotic stuff about how exchanges and marketing are bad for growth blah blah blah. And then that was that of them.

Last time I checked they even struggled to get enough witnesses and 100$ were more than enough to make you a megawhale there. Hippies gonna hippie !

There's always those guys on the jobsite that think they know better, so you hand them the tools, and they just end up in the hospital.
