Personally I wouldn’t vote a witness that was also a witness elsewhere especially on a platform like hive with totally different values but that’s just my personal opinion.
I understand & respect your decision.
My GOAL is clear & I remind it to me everyday.
GOAL
I respect every platform. If you see true user-base, they are on every decentralised platform.
My return question to you - One platform is equal to centralisation, isn't it?
My End Goal is for Users. Platforms paves the way for it.
it's too conflicting imo to be a witness of multi platforms which, are all competitive, it's almost impossible to serve one in a none biased way. I think one could create apps for them all but not have the best interests of each at heart. Just my opinion but I would never ever vote a witness on blurt who was also a hive witness and probably not even a serey one tbh even though I have no issues with serey and will no doubt join when I get a chance
For your kind info, @megadrive is a hive witness too. Do you think he is also at conflict?
maybe it won't bother some people, it's just my personal opinion it is a big conflict of interest especially considering the nefarious actions that go on on hive, although it could be a conflict of interest on serey. Like what if there was a decision to be made on one platform that could hurt another, how would one vote? Personally I think ppl should only be witness on one platform. But obviously I am not the only voter.
yeah I defo do and he has taken some bad advice from hive watchers before, i haven't voted for him either and it did put me off knowing he was a hive witness.
Consider the Cosmos billion dollar ecosystem of multiple chains, check this out https://mapofzones.com/ there are many chains interconnected with IBC bridges and oftentimes validators(witnesses) validate multiple chains if not all of them and in this ecosystem this is totally acceptable, only the Graphene space has been taught to be tribal, the industry is going multi-chain so I encourage witnesses to witness whatever chains they like, they can even learn new things to apply here.
Well it is tribal and it’s the way it’s become making it to me a conflict of interests. Of course if every single person on these platforms loved sharing, open source and loved seeing the other platforms grow too it might not be so bad but we know that’s not true lol we have people from hive witnesses or I think marky has been one at some point even coming over here and dragging blurt constantly, not that we don’t rlt do the same back but it’s hardly like everyone's caring and sharing lol
Over time they will see the light or get left behind. The world is evolving, we need to interconnect and grow outside of the Graphene bubble, Hive is welcome to evolve and collab with us in future. Crypto is about freedom, including freedom of association.
Freedom of association is very different to being a witness though. It’s sort of like the M.D of renewable energy also being the M.D. of the least ethical oil company in the world.
Not the same imo, see my candidacy example in previous comment. Hive as a technology isn't unethical, just people, there are good people there, the Splinterlands team and community for example, but there are a lot of bullies that make the place undesirable, that I can agree.
I prefer to keep any advantages and bridges I have for strategic and diplomatic reasons. Countries have embassies in other countries even if their policy is different and undesirable. I'm not top20 so not actively governing anything.
Like I said everyone chooses who they vote for on their own principles. Isn’t that ok? I personally do not vote for anyone who’s a witness elsewhere especially hive who has to me terrible morals as a platform. We already had some incident with taking advice from hive watchers if I remember.
Hive is fine as a platform technology wise, it’s (some) people that steer it that leave the gaping moral gap, not all of Hive is bad, not all is good. Blurt is mean’t to be good but we have a whale problem too.
You know full well a lot of the whales at hive would love to see blurt sink and would actively find a way to do it if they could easily. They already did theIr best to sabotage vyb because it has no downvotes. To me it’s a big conflict of interests. Like I said my opinion is just that my opinion doesn’t mean everyone thinks the same.
I don’t rly understand how peoples morals allow them to witness on both as if someone doesn’t like the downvoting thing they tend to support the blurt platform but it people like the downvoting system and being able to trash people to 0 for no real reason they like hive. It’s hard to sort or understand how someone can stand for and represent both those cultures and work towards them simultaneously to me.
I mean wasn’t blurt started as a direct option for those who are not happy with how hive is ran and born from discontent. I just don’t rly understand how someone can simultaneously work on both and support them forwards down the same path.
Think of it as running as an opposing candidate, my witness is there if people ever want to vote for a different ethos. I'm not like UPVU who forces Steem witnesses to abandon Blurt, I encourage people to build bridges everywhere, Hive will only improve if good people dilute the bad, not if they all run away. That being said, besides dlease still running on Hive, I don't have any other business interests there.
