This post is definitely not typical. Trending rarely seems to be community driven as the whales will decide who gets there. I see some people buying sizeable votes to get up there. I don't flag them any more on Steem. Not my problem any more.
We are still regrouping, people are still figuring out who is left and what direction to take.
The movement is growing, but overall you are clearly right. The Hive group has been crossposting, milking and interfering as well. As their influence declines, we are starting to find out who is here and interested on giving it our best shot for a while.
Freezing people's assets sucks, censoring people sucks... suing people sucks.
So much stinking...
Who knows what will be left.
by the way, I'm powering down on both sides, but I am not leaving for 9 weeks and maybe not then if things start to be handed back to the community.
While I disagree with much of what is happening, I also understand SteemIt, Justin, feels the need to protect himself from a hostile group that touched his stake pre-emptively.
Hive feels more like a github (linux forum feel) whereas this feels more like a social network. To each their own, but the two chains are starting to go their own ways which is good.
Where are the comments though? Looks like people just follow the big votes. Not very social.
How many of them have sends to appreciator ;D
I'm not even checking. I always thought buying votes was bad for Steem and it's still going one. Less of it on 4ive (can I mention it?) so far.
I had a quick look and they are selling votes. The stake that is used is Freedom's -hostage stake. it is all a bit LOL.
Look at this post! It depends from one to the other.

I wonder what you will be left with when the Hive crowd move on. The community and how they engage is as important to me as the rewards.
It is hard to resist baiting Steemit with their vacuous posts :) I guess I could get frozen out if I take it too far. I'll get on with powering down.
Oh, and censorship still stinks!
Keep Steeming on.

Hive Trending looks exactly how it always did. lol. I like this better.
Lets keep moving forward.
We've already lost tons of times. No need to look back them anymore.
