RE: What the fuck do witnesses do?

You get upset because someone notifies your witness is malfunctioing in a public channel (which apparently you thought was some "private channel" so not even sure why this bothered you), rather than just DMing you about it. Yet you seem to feel its perfectly fine to then attack them for this in as public a way as possible. The hypocrisy here is a bit much.

Also, as far as I can see you, you make these attacks without asking anyone if your random guesses about reality are even close to accurate. Would you like it if people started making random accusations about you, then published them without even a basic check about the truth of the accusation? You're suggesting @gandalf isn't adding value to Hive? He's one of the key contributors here and works an enormous amount of hours on Hive.

Open and active discussion is fine. Accusing people publicly without even a hint of due diligence is not.

I’m the furthest thing from upset. I’d say, I’m completely indifferent to the whole situation.

No one’s been attacked, though it seems like a simple video was made out to seem like an attack. Would recommend anyone go and listen to the actual video that started it all

Nowhere in the video was Gandalf named. I don’t think anyone was actually named in it

Instead, it called for people to be more active in governance on hive. Somehow that shook trees for certain people

The hypocrisy in all this is that a few people are acting attacked because of a video that called out “people who aren’t doing enough for hive” and didn’t actually mention anyone by name.

If saying that we need more people - especially in paid leadership positions - to step up and do more positive things to grow hive is grounds to be continuously badgered and have a whole campaign made against you (as seen here and in the aforementioned public + private channels on matter most) then that’s a whole corner issue to tackle.

p.s. the message wasn’t notifying us that the witness is down

The message was “look how incompetent they are”

If it was just “hey this is down. Worth a look” etc etc. that’s a whole other story

It’s in the screenshots on this very post

It’s the unproductive drama that I hate. Especially from leadership (top 20 witnesses). And look at what everyone is doing here. More drama. For what?

You can join Open Hive Chat and join the #witness-blocks channel and then set a ping notification for your user name to be notified of missed blocks.

It is not my preferred way of doing it, but it's easy to setup and at least gives you bare minimum notification.

If you use FRIDAY, it also has notifications. They also have notification for stale price feeds.

Add in redundancy with a fail over script and you can eliminate downtime altogether.

There are solutions and they are not difficult or complex.

I don't think you see the irony of saying you should be top 20 when you are not even remotely doing the bare minimum to be a proper witness. I could care less about the statements about current witnesses and so on, I don't fully disagree with some of what is said. I do however take offense to expecting to be top 20 when it would put our chain at risk.

Especially from leadership (top 20 witnesses)

Witnesses are not leadership, they are merely here to do a job and keep the chain running and safe. Granted they may do other things.

I also take offense to your statement on Discord calling your community to change their witness votes because your feelings were hurt. This is disgusting and comically immature.
