RE: Well I'm Buying HIve and Powering the Fuck Up!

in #hive2 years ago

Iduno man, downvoting him to 0 doesn’t really feel fair to me.…it just feels uninviting. If you want to just counteract the dtube vote 1 for 1 I guess that feels a bit more reasonable, but are we gonna start penalizing people for powering down or for not getting comments?

Sort:  

I think it's fair enough when literally every penny is leaving the ecoystem! Point taken about just counteting the Dtube vote though that would be more nuanced!

It's not like I don't empathize with the sentiment... and downvoting has proven itself a necessary mechanism at times, but mostly it just seems to reinforce the in-group out-group dynamic. How much effort is put into steering these people into getting involved in the community before annihilating their rewards?

I know lots of people who don't know how to survive right now. I know very few people who have never used a tag just for an upvote (do you remember #busy?). If the problem is people cashing out, then I say focus on building up projects like Hivelist and anyone trying to make it easier for small businesses to adopt Hive/HBD.
