I'm already seeing a few posts/comments where people sound like they want to burn this place down.
An emotionally immature stance to take.
I'm not a fan of this blockchain being overrun by greed and petty differences. There's no place for my style of content here at the moment, so I'll go where the people are. I'm not a fan of slamming the door as I leave though. No point in pissing on the carpet. I never liked those people who just went to parties to punch holes in the walls and get in fights.
As a people watcher, it'll be interesting to see how some folks will act like assholes on Steem and super happy friendly on hive. If that happens.
I think that for now, people will be dancing, but when push comes to value shove, many will continue to participate here. I know that for me, I have put a lot of effort into Steem, and while I will go where the people go, I will likely continue to do some work here that i think might help. If we aren't helping something, we aren't really doing anything of value, right?
For the next few days, I think I will be putting more thoughts on different aspects to consider for some people interested.
Yep. Looking forward to observing it.
Business mind is telling me I'll be starting from scratch in one place and losing half or more of my viewership in another.
This has been hell but I consider myself lucky. I got back on the internet just in time. If I had signed in today to look around, like I did just over a month ago, I think I would have shut it off. My current mindset could be interfering though. Hype doesn't work on me. I'm a realist and in the now. These exciting recent developments don't take away from the fact what I worked so goddamn hard for is... yeah
Time to shut this off for the night.
Get some rest, but remember you aren't starting completely from scratch - you have relationships that you have built here and will endure :)
I know, dude. I haven't forgotten that part. Still a well timed reminder though.
