Most people talking about Hive are Hive people, and those who0 are not and are talking about Hive, probably don't have anything positive to say :)
If hive goes to stakeholders, witensses and dao in few years we will get more centralized first layer. when you look who are the biggest stakeholders, witnesses and who is getting the dao...
Yes, this is the challenge - are the people here now decent stakeholders? Who knows, but there has been 4 years of developing the stakeholder group, so another 4 years might not change it much, especially if it is relying on earnings only.
hive was possible because of the social part of it. is it possible to continue like this?
Yes, it might make it far more social. People on Facebook don't spend too much time thinking about the governance of Facebook.
idk, i am probably stupid, but i don't like this renunciation of creators and users.
if steem had no social aspect we would all still be on steem cheering on twitter for justin to pump it.
I think that in time, the social aspect would be empowered through the separation - but it will mean that those who want to invest will have to work a bit harder. I think Hive has the lowest entry into crypto and investing in the world, yet many people still don't seem to learn what it is all about.
