Just blind downvoting. Didn't bother me until I noticed who and what types of content were targeted during this pathetic hissy fit.
I didn't know about the 'trendthis' stuff. Haven't even heard of it.
I had suggested that specific content have it's own home as well. But instead now the arts and entertainment is getting downvoted. So, the opposite of progress happened.
Even placing arts and entertainment in a community means someone will come along and take a shit on it now. This is really fucking bad for Hive. At this point though I feel nothing will change. I've noticed now, after digging further, more and more people have been targeted. It's all arts and entertainment. Probably the worst thing that could happen to this place when it comes to content is happening now.
Jeez...guess I'll be next on the hit list then...!
Thought we had moved passed all of this and left it behind on Steem. Let's make "Entertainment Chain"
Only if you do good! So make sure you do shitty, or else. Maybe we should decline rewards since we don't deserve them! That would be fun!
Was that too much sarcasm?
I was dumb enough to think the shady aspect of Steem was going to stay there.
There's actually quite a lot of potential in the even just the thought of an entertainment chain. A top twenty witness already told me the content is worthless, on Hive and that was a couple weeks ago. If it comes down to it, why not fork? LOL!
Honestly though, there's enough competition now. None of us need to be here. Don't take anything I'm saying to heart or too seriously though at this point. I'm still quite sour and pissed off about what I'm seeing here. I'd like to be able to joke around and show off some art instead of dealing with all this but I can't see that happening now. Can't fake it. Powering down and everything... but still thinking.
I'll endeavour to make some of the worst content imaginable to avoid getting hit 😂
Ah, wonder what the top 20 witnesses want to see as content or what they want Hive to be? Shall we start mining "ENTMT" coin now? Haha
I try to stay out of the politics or at least have a balanced viewpoint but sometimes the facepalm behind the screen spills out! I'm exploring a music streaming site as another option to post music and see how that pans out but I've still got some targets I want to reach with Hive.
The good thing about powerdown is that it takes 7 days until you get your first payment which long enough to think and let the dust settle a bit - just don't think too hard and make some art... then decline your rewards when you're ready to post it 😉
