Wow, thanks for taking the time to give such a thorough response! I am rather new here on steemit, but my fiancé and joint account holder @jae5086 joined steemit back in 2016 so he would have been around for the fork so perhaps we'll check into it from his old account. If I were to join Hive, I don't think I would cross-post/copy+paste.

I have been doing well and received a lot of help from folks in the World of Xpilar community and cross-posting is definitely against the rules there, but that doesn't mean I can't share the same art that I've created. I would simply make sure the wording was different and that should satisfy everyone. I do love the idea of more English speakers. @jae5086 thought when we started this account that it seemed like a lot less English speakers, particularly those from the US, than he remembered from his brief time on the platform years back. Perhaps Hive is where they all went, haha.

On universal basic income, that's actually something I had thought about during the last US presidential election cycle, as one of the candidates was a supporter. My position is that it will be necessary eventually as AI and robotics continue to advance and slowly eat up more and more jobs. We'll simply hit a point (I believe) where there are not enough jobs for people. This, coupled with the consolidation of wealth that is likely to result, I think will force that issue. Not sure it would be in my lifetime though, as I don't expect to see it any time soon.

On Splinterlands, now I am going to have to try to find my old account. I know it was a year or so ago, but I don't think I bought any packs, just the spellbook that you had to buy to get started. I'm pretty sure all packs were sold out and a new expansion at the time was weeks from launching.
