you were firmly against using SP to support things and suggested people use tips instead
Source?
I said the opposite for as long as I can remember. I only every replied that to people who considered my downvotes as theft and to individual like OCDB using votes as payment method, they were paying their curators with upvotes on summary posts.
In hindsight it might actually be better if the audience of No Agenda never get exposed to Hive content platform. They have the largest federated mastodon community and are focusing on lighting network for boosts and tipping. @freedom and @blocktrade stake have spoken and I respect the outcome.
That would be great on web2, but this is web3, public, and supposed to be in the collective interests of us all.
Dissent is essential to finding the truth.
Crushing dissent is the old way.
Supporting free speech, in this context, means voting more than just what meets one's fancy.
We may not support everything @baah does, but defending his right to do it is essential to maintaining a reality of 'supportive of free speech'.
@baah can speak all he wants on this amazing platform, just with his comments hidden, a negative rep highlighted in red, and down-votes trailing his every move. You just gotta love "free speech" here on Hive.
I believe the old slack, honestly it has been a while and maybe your stance has changed, but I did hear you say it a few times. This was before there was even mechanisms to tip.
No argument there.
I don't really have any knowledge of this so I have nothing to say, my only issue was automated posts of an image being upvoted at a very high frequency. I'm all for content producers getting rewarded and I would even support them myself but automated posts with a single image and a licensing message isn't content nor does it even reward the podcast artists. You show me where I can reward them with upvotes, I'd be all for it.
