Phew, that would take me a while.
I don't think it's worth it, as I am not who you are looking for anyways.
Maybe if I find the time, I'll write a script for finding those downvotes and discussions, as some of that stuff is old... and I want to show proof, just for the record.
Oh ok, I didn't realise you meant that the posts were so old.
I made this post recently:
https://peakd.com/ocd/@felixxx/hive-blockchain-vs-curation-business
In the comments you can see how crazy acidyo is.
And that we go way back.
However, that was not about free speech, but more about how they influence content and its rewards here.
Thanks, there are some interesting statements made in that thread - in particular that they value commenting and engagement over the quality of the actual post. So they are not curating for POB, but POC (proof of commenting) - which is not really a valid metric for POB. If commenting were a sound measure of POB then commenting would be a factor in the reward algorithm. So at the very least it is reasonable to say that all investors and creators need to be aware that the 'code is law' selling point of POB and Hive is being distorted by the POC approach of the major curating projects at present.
Look at the profile I mentioned in the main post:
They curate for OCD, their friend (or they themselves) also curate for curangel. Then, they just circle vote (curate) each other.
The content format is always the same: 3 pictures, xxx number of words, school essay type of content that would get no traction anywhere outside of Hive. It is so obvious, it's incredible.
yes, I can see that - just more to add to the sketchiness of the whole situation!
