The idea is to give people interoperability across platforms . .
Twitter is notorious about censorship and giving people a tool where they can post to chain allows their speech to live on past censorship, and when people's Tweets are posted to hive it allows hive users to partake in their conversations on chain.
People will come to Hive for their comments that Hive users give them on their tweets.
Bitchute and LBRY both use this model for allowing users to automatically post videos from Youtube to Bitchute, allowing censored videos to live on.
We have opted to decline rewards for auto posts from Twitter and our Devs are working to make it a permanent setting.
We also allow people to post directly to chain from our Dapp https://d.buzz/.
If we start dictating what conversations people are allowed to have and not allowed to have whats the point of blockchain decentralization.
We want people to be able to have a place to have conversations similar to the way they do on other social media outlets.
There wont be an issue of reward pool abuse as all Twitter posts are being set to Decline Rewards. Posts will be made to the DBuzz community so no cluttering of the main feeds.
The intentions sound really nice, but it's really spammy.
It would be nice if people could set a post and then tweet into their own comment section on that post (with decline payout on comments and one post for the week to upvote).....then that post could refresh every week or every month. That'd be really nice.
@whatamidoing We have looked into that idea but using the communities for all our post prevents the main feeds from being affected. Having it in a clean format in our community allows our users to interact with content in our community easily on other platforms such as peakd and hive.blog. We also have the advantage of using the trending sections in communities for the top post/buzz. We are still discussing this idea and it's a possibility that we may do it the way you described. Here is a post that discusses some of this https://hive.blog/proposal/@dbuzz/proposal-to-change-usdhive-at-the-blockchain-level
