We are Making Good Progress

in steem •  5 years ago 

This is simply unfortunate confirmation that our once-beloved decentralized blockchain has been overtaken by privatized interests (perhaps it always was.) To be clear – there is absolutely nothing 'decentralized' about censorship. PERIOD.

I had admittedly been undecided about how I might proceed after tomorrow's HF, but this post has made my choice for me. I've given much to this chain, but...it's time to accept my losses and move on. How very disappointing.

actually, it won't be a loss to move to HIVE. We will have total freedom on HIVE. All your posts and everything will be saved on HIVE. There will be no censorship on HIVE, so you will be free. And your steem balance will be transferred to HIVE balance, so you won't be losing anything, but you will be gaining your freedom.

"We will have total freedom on HIVE."

This is certainly my hope, but not my expectation. Perhaps passion is necessary to paradigm shifts, but abandoning our grasp of reality in our passion is not. Let's keep it real so that we can functionally undertake actions necessary to make our freedom.

No matter who is offering to provide you freedom, they cannot. That free people must do themselves, and doing so begins with understanding the obstacles that always have, and always will, be in the way.

Same shit, honey flava, just 'fishy' in a nu-style.

I'm very curious how this place will transform. As long as I get ~1 down vote per hour then I know nothing improved yet. :-D

It's THAT simple.

Thank you – I didn't mean to insinuate that a move to HIVE represents a loss of all previous efforts. It's more akin to, say...leaving a home you'd felt comfortable in, moving on to occupy some new, as yet unknown space.

In fact, I'm quite excited about Hive's potential. Right out the gate – from branding to UI – I think HIVE is better set for global adoption; it's clean, simple, attractive and easy to spell. ;)

See you over there, miss Stellebelle. <3
