Why does hive limit the amount of content?
Have you ever thought what would happen if Google or Facebook or Twitter would limit the amount of licensed content? Probably not, because there is no real reason to limit content. But there are platforms that are in trouble. The "social" network hive proves that when it comes to money there are no friends.
While the criticism towards centralized companies such as Facebook and Google is theoretically correct, in a network like its hive there are only about 15,000 users and there are a few individuals who control the content.
Such centralization on other platforms would have provoked an uproar. 15000 is the size of a medium group on Facebook and companies like Google and Facebook make decisions in committees of tens of people with regulation of millions. But it is precisely the hive social network where a few individuals decide on the distribution of the content, boasting of decentralization.
Hive's technology is interesting, but it turns out that, as in any revolution, the revolutionaries turn 180 degrees as soon as the power is in their hands.
Downvoting is more than multiplying whales power. It is actually evaporating the freedom of speech from others. Not even facebook allows such aggressive anti communication.
