What Would You Choose If You Have Only One Choose to Make Over Blurt, Steemit or Hive?

in instablurt •  2 years ago 

I mostly post on Hive because I have a decent following there. But the downvote drama does worry me sometimes. I have seen people blown up for ridiculous things and I'm always slightly paranoid that someone is going to find some BS reason to take me down too.
Sometimes I post on Steem, but it reminds me of a washed up and sad community. I don't see anyone making more than $0.05 a post there and I never see real comments. It's a ghosttown.
I'd like to be more active here but I can't seem to get the hang of tags here. The community system on Hive makes far more sense to me than the tags here. But maybe that's because I've been on there forever?
Also, it's just a massive amount of time for me trying to be active on all platforms. It's easy to drop a post in all of them, but I usually end up commenting strictly on one.
So if I had to pick, I'd say Hive for me, just because of my following there. But only until the downvote mobs hit me. Then it would be 100% here with a lot of posts there encouraging people to come here. 😊

Do you speak up for these people? If not why not? Are you ok seeing ppl you like taken to 0 for fun ? I know I sound harsh but this rly isn’t ok behaviour. People either need to stand up together and over turn that site or just power down and come here. It’s not right to watch ppl get bullied and just bury ones head in the sand.

I see your point, but how much is bullying and how much is legitimate fighting against plagiarism etc? I've seen legitimately bad accounts taken out for valid reasons. It isn't always "for fun."
I've also seen accounts like yours get taken out for who the hell knows why. Someone had a beef with you and used their power to take you down. I have an alt account which got dinged hard one week for similar reasons. They didn't like what I posted, instead of being an adult and just scrolling by, they found some BS reason to obliterate an entire week's worth of rewards. When I protested in a Discord chat I was basically told to get over it. They said I was committing plagiarism because I didn't directly link to sources for photos, even when I gave the source in my post. There is a shifting set of "rules" they like to hide behind and often they don't even abide by those rules.
If it were up to me I'd go back to the original premise of Steemit. Let the market decide what posts get rewarded by just allowing people to vote as they wish.
Maybe I just don't have the balls to leave after investing so much time and energy into it. But you're correct, I could do more to stand up for the bullied...

Once people open their eyes they will see it’s for fun and it’s very corrupt. Look at how @world-travel-pro first got kicked off and @yayogerardo @outofthematrix and @ura-soul @logiczombie @drutter @frot @projecthope thefe was An artist on super rare who got downvoted for sharing the same artwork a year apart using hive when the other was on steemit. Then when he questioned it was downvoted for doing it.
These ppl only turned More outspoken and made more aggressive posts when they had accepted leaving / earning nothing and had been pushed to breaking point. omg so many ppl have been targetedI lost count tbh

Personally when I was in that private chat group I saw them just target newbies so they drove them off the site and they are not even there anymore to see. You’ll find one of them @lost with his abandoned account still on steemit. This was just one of the many many newbies that got taken to rep zero just for a laugh.

The downvoters all break the rules they set for others. Check Acidyos steem wallet, check how many accounts he owns etc, check the date those accounts were created….. pre Steemit startup. I think it was planned like this from the get go.

I actually only rly got downvoted for standing up for others but I can’t just sit there and watch it. That’s just not who I am. It’s like watching ppl at school get bullied and standing by and not saying anything in the hope they don’t move onto you. If everyone just stood together they would have more power! My main point is do you feel comfy there you could ask one of the downvotin* whales why they are downvoting someone? Or would you feel too afraid to open that dialogue knowing they would turn on you? The answer to that q says it all. If you wouldn’t dare ask a simple a like that that is hella toxic.

Ikr I had to stop 😵‍💫

If someone was getting beaten up and their wallet robbed on the high street would you just pretend you hadn’t seen it?

You may feel tag systems is like unfamiliar because you're coming from a community based system. You should be there few months and I am sure you will feel that as ok. About the hive dv, I don't know much details about that because I am not a frequent hive user, But I know about steemit and what's happening there. You have seen users who just get 0,05$ because they don't do what the teams wants. If you're doing what team wants, I am sure you will be in the $ list. I didn't like to work as they want. That's why I choose blurt because it has the freedom to do whatever we want.
