For the past 18 months I haven't really been posting on or looking at Hive. I have been elsewhere, on platforms like Bastyon, Blurt, Gab, and yes, even Fakebook...
Back in the day (2021), I was a Hive "Orca" and had over 250k of HP split between multiple accounts, doing a lot of autovoting, and looking over my old Hive spreadsheet yesterday, I clearly saw it as a business, which as things worked out it was.
At the same time I was posting about stuff like the covidhoax and the injection scam, and that is what got me blacklisted - some of the biggest accounts on Hive are pro globalist and pro narrative, and I have never worked out if they are deep state or just total retards. Up until mid 2021 I got away with it.
But then they stated making Hive fully pro covid injection narrative and started the big crackdown. They all look like total fucktards now don't they?
In the end I was so enraged about being downvoted all the time that I powered down, sold the lot, then told some big whales to go fuck themselves and stopped posting on Hive. As it worked out it was a great time to sell Hive and I made truckloads. So those whaletards did me a big favour.
After using a bunch of other platforms for the past two years I now value how well put together Hive actually is - everything works really well - the other sites don't! - and the payouts don't matter to me anymore, as I see now that wanting my $10 payouts for each post was what the whaletards had over me - If I don't care and turn off the rewards, their whole carrot and stick control system is buggered.
So if I get back into using Hive again, as well as declining rewards, I also won't be investing or powering up my accounts beyond the 5HP needed for resource credits. The whole thing of linking content to rewards, always seems to lead to a total disaster. At least for anyone trying to expose narratives and agendas it does. For posting pictures of kittens it's fine...
