HIVE - DOWNVOTE = BLURT

_{(Source: https://hive.blog/hive-189111/@topbooster/how-a-whale-downvote-works)}

Has your post been downvoted for no apparent reason on Hive platform?

Perhaps the cause is one of the following reasons:

• Your posts were too short.
• Your posts lacked effort to write.
• Your posts got too much reward.

Imagine when a Facebook or Twitter or Instagram user joins here. What do you think he will post?

Facebook users may share online news links. Twitter users may post short tweets. Instagram users may upload photos with simple titles.

Will all their posts also be downvoted? Then they will turn around and not join the platform.

And how do we judge someone's post requires a little or a lot of effort to write it? Shouldn't you be well prepared to post even just a photo?

Also regarding too much reward, how to determine it? Is there a maximum limit of rewards that one post can receive?

Thus, we can understand that the reasons above are not appropriate to downvote a post. These are irresponsible indiscriminate downvotes.

And to solve this problem, Blurt was born. The similar platform as Hive, also a fork of the Steem blockchain, but without the downvote feature.

The founders of the Blurt platform, were aware of this downvote issue from the beginning. That indiscriminate downvotes like these will drive users off the platform, and will eventually bring down the platform itself.

So they forked the Steem blockchain, removed the downvote feature, and created a new blockchain called Blurt. With this, the downvote problem has been completely resolved on the Blurt platform.

Anyone can join and post whatever they like without worrying about being downvoted by anyone. Welcome Facebook, Twitter and Instagram users to Blurt.
