RE: Why I came to Hive and what I plan on doing next. A response to Unklebonehead.

in Threespeak3 years ago

I don't know why I'm coming up here in relation to free speech. "Free speech" = not censored based on topic. Hive is pro free speech. Hive is not pro plagiarism and taking someone else's free speech to monetize it. That's not free speech; that is theft. No one is mandated to be paid for reposting someone else's hard work or creating a botnet. We all agree on that.

I manage the Spaminator bot which I took over due to everyone else who managed it previously retiring from the role. It's a very technical matter so it's not easy to find anyone else to replace. I also manage the fediverse portal and a few other things as they're technical. There's a seed and a full Hive API. Those are likewise technical and require financial investment. Spaminator = instances on two servers. Fediverse = one instance. Other comms = one server. Seed = one server. API = one server. Those add up, they require monitoring, financing, managing, responsibility. Same with partnerships, some exchanges I work with to list HIVE, various pieces of documentation, some marketing, community projects, social media, etc. This has nothing to do with free speech but with the fact that I'm a free man. I don't have to report at 9am and clock out 5pm. I have the ability to allocate my time as I see fit and I allocate a good portion of it to Hive for everyone's benefit. That's the simple explanation. It has nothing to do with the content of some post here or there.

I dunno man. Wasn't me throwing you under the bus. Am noticing this individual I attempted to communicate with has a habit of twisting things, so of course it's frustrating. Probably a waste of my ability to speak freely...

Thanks for clearing that up though. Had a hunch things were being spun or taken out of context.

Why did you make this?
Because we believe in the freedom of speech and unrestricted ability to communicate with others. There are no monetary incentives for ourselves to host, manage or create for this technology. The incentive is interest and personal utility.

we...Who is we again @guiltyparties? You make it very clear that

...don't believe in short-sighted extrinsic rewards which become expected (such as receiving tokens for every possible interaction) because they lower intrinsic rewards in the long-term.

This why you were brought up. After going to the fediverse I found you expressing your antivax views in the Hive offical fediverse portal. Seemed like a place for you to rant about science deniers and not trying to onboard people to hive where we get extrinsic rewards which become expected.

Hi. I think you've called the wrong number. The one you're referring to as 'you', is not me. At a glance it appears some basic reading comprehension skills would go a long way and help provide the answers you seek from the individual you're speaking to; an individual who just so happens to not be me. How strange it is; I've already solved the puzzle yet I'm not even the one invited to play the game.

Good morning sir

Hi. Is your fridge running?

Sorry to hear about your loss.
