RE: When was the last time you checked your witness votes? Was it the Steem/Hive hard fork? Or Never?

I'd really like to see you folks tackle your issues without the smear campaign and throwing folks under the bus. I'm bored with the platform politics. You found that out the other day. I disagree with the rift being created and enforced. I don't agree with how downvotes are used in some cases either. The things I say I say confidently because the chain is there to back me up. I represent myself and only myself. Act on my own.

And yes when I say 'this group' I'm using the term loosely and don't want to single anyone out. I guess attempting to describe how 'this group' acts towards me is a waste of time, but I know my personal experience well. If I push that any further 'this group' will only want to defend itself in order to protect the image they'd prefer. 'This group' can run a seemingly never ending smear campaign, but 'this group' will not tolerate much, if any, criticism. 'This group' assumes anyone who's not for it, is against it. No middle ground to enjoy.

I'll stop bugging you folks now and probably just leave the platform entirely for awhile. Again, the only reason I'm here is because some bullshit led me here to 'this group', and I'm sick of this bullshit. But I don't want to get into the details and lay it all out for everyone. I just know what I know.

Toodles.

Well, thanks for sharing your perspective, all voices have something to offer - even if others are tired of hearing the message or adamantly oppose the voice. It may be that, as objectively as we can be, it is the case that a specific voice is espousing dangerous ideas that very definitely will lead to objectively terrible outcomes for everyone that adopts them - but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't hear them. At the same time, everyone who speaks publicly can expect to draw a reflection from others and from this they can always learn.

I agree that that would be a great ideal for all groups and all people. Sometimes people have had experiences and even traumas that lead them to feel that they don't have personal space to be able to interact with someone else without being defensively/ offensively triggered and so they lose balance. It takes courage and intent to be free enough to think openly and also to challenge our own (often deeply engrained) thinking in order to feel safe/free enough to always stay away from offensive behaviour. Ultimately, it is everyone's responsibility to notice where they may be acting out their own issues on other people in ways that aren't optimal for all involved.

I've been around this block, forever. All this talking will lead to nothing. Fact.

This is a decentralized media platform. Not the Covid forum. Not the Truther forum. Not the alternative media forum. Not the (insert favorite political nonsense party name here) forum.

IF any group's information is being suppressed, and I don't just mean on the platform, I mean globally... Any group is now free to simply ACT, build their platform upon Hive, and carry on. I see that's in the works. So just go DO IT. Chiseling away at the very foundation is only shooting yourselves in the foot. We have years of trial and error to fall back on. Shouldn't be too hard to get it right. Why waste time yapping about it and playing politics? And oddly enough some of those folks you feel don't stand for freedom or didn't make the cut helped provide the some of the infrastructure required to enjoy the freedom you want, with no intention of ever taking it away, and still building upon it.

I have trouble believing some of you folks in 'this group'. Consistently able to put on a big show, talk a big game, FOR YEARS! Anytime something goes wrong it's a big hissy fit. Forever saying the solution is on the horizon yet it never comes. Stop fucking around and just do it already.

Fair enough, we are!

Good!

I'll believe it when I see it.

Believing is seeing. lol.
A layer 2 token has been worked on for 18 months and the main reason it isn't live is because a founding team member had to drop out for personal reasons. It will either be on Hive Engine or if SPK gets layer 2 solutions going it will be on there. Once SPK gets going there will probably be an explosion of such projects.

I've been looking forward to seeing what SPK has to offer as well. Are they getting close to release day? Seems to be taking awhile.

Great!
