An unfortunate thing happened today, and after doing some research, I've decided to move my blog over to Hive. I'm surprised that more crypto-related projects haven't done the same. Medium seems to be the top choice. It has a decent interface, has a broad community offering wide exposure, but today I saw this when I visited their site:
I'm not sure exactly which rule I violated. They don't tell you. They don't notify you that the content is no longer available, and it seems to fully automated.
I did get my account re-activated, but I realized that if I continue to use Medium I don't own my content, they do. What if they had deleted everything? Articles that I spent hours writing could be lost. I have half a dozen nearly complete draft posts on their site.
So, Hello Hive 👋
I'm excited to be here. I'll start moving my posts over as time permits.
