Finally Seeing The Light Of Day - Blockchain Coffee “Protest”

in Freewriters4 years ago (edited)

We complained, bitched, moaned, and cried till action was taken but did we every really think through the potential results of our protest?


So many people seem surprised by what is now happening with the STEEM and HIVE blockchains after many of us having turned our backs on our mother chain to begin with. I was even one who championed the idea of a split, or maybe more so I just perceived its inevitability. I did not like the idea of our chain splitting due to understanding how complicated it would all be, yet there were still some things I did not image would come to be. Some further I wish could still be.

I never thought we would see DTube pressured not to be apart of HIVE. I find it hard to believe that the stoners of STEEM are among the loyalists of the chain as we are often the anarchists. I am however not surprised to see the attacks extending either direction by platform loyalists. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself who's battle are your fighting? Is this a battle for your freedom of speech or a battle to express that right freely on the platform? Personal or platform? Then why do we make it personal if it is the platform?

Still with everything going on I see one thing on the horizon which is a positive and will help the creators of our platforms stay ahead of the ever-mounting daily tasks. This is something I have been talking about for a long while now being a tool which enables simplicity of promotional efforts in some way or another. I have been trying to figure how to work it out for a long while starting early on with a "YouTube Ripper" for One Love DTube that had a scheduling posts feature but it seems having anything to do with the MS platforms at that time was frowned upon. Fast forward till today and we see 3rd Party YouTube uploads enabled on DTube. Central concerning idea that has been overcome is the "cross-platform" posting which I see opening the door for a tool to enable exactly what I want. With this chain split we see people previously loyalists looking for means of adoption and survival. I believe a tool that helps the creators like myself build their own brand while promoting the platforms they can do it through will be the one to rise above all others. A STEEMPress/HIVEPress like no other before it bring together the reverse of Share2STEEM and individuals platforms of choice. How all the pieces fit together I have yet to figure out but I am working on it with my Word/STEEMPress Page. Idea's I have long been talking about …

Finally Seeing The Light Of Day


Has The Idea Of Being A Witness Crossed Your Mind? For me it started as a desire to learn if I could do it.

Maybe It's Time To Run That Idea Out? I for one will be certain to support in any way I can the new witnesses in their efforts to help maintain the blockchain... hit us up in discord ?

I never thought we would see DTube pressured not to be apart of HIVE

so does this mean when Dtube launches July 1st on Avalon we will not be capable of earning any more Hive with each video ??

It was more near the beginning and ongoing with DTube getting flagged ... I don’t think they will stop supporting Hive at least I have not heard so

Well written @d00k13, and DTube pressured to leave Hive was news to me, but maybe inevitable, and good luck with your Youtube ripper for OneLoveDTube, keep up your great work, it's awesome.
