Im really excited to read about this. Its a wonderful development to help secure the decentralised aspect of the chain. Way to lock out the steemit accts too. Wondering about two things if anyone has heard (i dont have a lot of online time for this kind of research): Steem Basic Income.. @sbi Will they be migrating to hive? Also Appics what are they doing? I dont trust the tronscape at all so would rather not use it. Any news or links would be much appreciated. I really Love the nane too. Hive fits well

I haven't talked to the SBI folks, but I would assume so. Could always go check out their discord and see how the conversation is going.

No idea on appics either, I've never used it or followed them.

At the moment, the ONLY non-TRON frontend or dApp I've heard about that wasn't going to make the switch is steemworld.

Wow that's commitment, I REALLY like the idea about the steem hostile takeover post replacement!

I'm with you on the powering down, see on the Hive, i think it sounds more natural with a 'the' in front of it!

True, The Hive does sound better than just Hive.

Does that mean we're all bees or drones now instead of steemians? Or are we Hivians? Hivers? Gonna be interesting to see what our new "nationality" is called :-)

I'm definitely not looking forward to the time it will take to update all my posts, but I also don't want my content being on a centralized, Chinese database. Plus, the only actual value of steemit.com is our content, the SEO that generates, etc. Every piece of content that gets pulled off their chain will decrease it's value just a little bit more.

See ya on the other side brother!

I'll do the same, when I get the chance, a gradual project I think!

Lots of fun to be had with naming coming up, for sure.

Sounds great. I've noticed over the last few months I've barely been getting any votes from my posts despite being a member of @TribeSteemup and was wondering if this would be resolved from the Fork or if there's anything I can do to address this. I would really appreciate any feedback or assistance you can give me Kenny.

Hey @krishool! Good to see ya around again.

You were removed from the auto-voter after many people across the Steem community brought to my attention that you were receiving our votes for plagiarized memes & images, without any content added to them.

I was always a big fan of your work, but the TSU stake is only used to support original content, besides the genre & quality standards.

That's fair enough. It didn't occur to me at the time that sharing the memes was in violation of the standards and I stopped once I became aware of this. Is it possible to reapply for entry in the tribe?

I promise not to share any plagiarised memes next time and will be on my best behavior.

If you're gonna edit your posts, why not just add a header with, "Find me on Hive now!" Above the original content?

$0.00

[-]

kennyskitchen (72) · 5 years ago

A variety of reasons, but mostly:

SEO - As long as that content is on those older "original" posts on steemit.com, that is where search engines will send people, rather than my active blog on Hive.
^^^ That is literally the only value of steemit.com, and by removing my content, I am taking away some of the value of that soon-to-be fully centralized chinese website.

Thanks for sharing your plan. It makes my brain calm down a little bit.
BTW as you were talking about having a new name for your project. Can you give me an idea of how to migrate the account with a new user name? As you can see my user name, it's really awkward!

No way to change the name on an account, you would just have to make a new account.

Just to name a few, I want to give a big THANK YOU to @aggroed, @blocktrades, @lukestokes, @theycallmedan, @ura-soul, @roelandp, @therealwolf, @acidyo, @someguy123, @steempeak, @minnowsupport, @r0nd0n, and many others! (If I didn't mention you, it's just because these were the first few off the top of my head)

Let's get @r0nd0n in the Hive Witness top 20. The only one of the group you mentioned who did not sell out on their ideals to install 22.2; as well as @timcliff the only pre-22.2 witness not to install that version. (Not sure if @minnowsupport even had a witness node)

Call it a freeze or precaution or whatever the hell you want... it broke the trust of the chain by restricting account options from targeted accounts instead of seeking a universal solution and achieved a fat nothing with 22.5 undoing its restrictions.

This chain fork was always the real ultimatum which could have been delivered to Mr. Sun. With such an ultimatum Mr. Sun may have seen the error of his ways and the STEEM blockchain may not have begun descending into shards of itself.

Interesting. I'm on the other side personally, timcliff was the only witness who didn't support 0.22.2 that kept my vote.

I believe that was the correct move, in response to everything that had been said & published by Justin & Tron to that point. The fact that his response was to bring in custodial funds and hostile take-over our governance after saying he wanted to talk and setting up a meeting, makes it clear that JS is a bad actor, and we were correct to treat him as such.

the STEEM blockchain may not have begun descending into shards of itself.

Not sure what you're talking about here? The community is more active & connected than at literally any point in the 4 years we've been here, and this HF was long-needed. I'm just glad this ridiculous situation was finally the kick in the butt that the Steem community needed to make the move.

I don't see what this video has to do with my content? The fact that you just dropped an un-related link in my comments without any actual comment clearly qualifies as spam. Flagged as such.
