The parties involved hasn't gotten around to me and others yet. But it's just so disgusting to read how they calculate their metrics. I've include here links to article you may want to peruse that validates your decision to distance yourself. At your leisure, sir, when you want to take a trip to The Twilight Zone:

This was the first foolery:

I am grateful for the time you have taken to find these, @justclickindiva . Having now read through them, yes, sadly, they are just more evidence for why I have chosen to remove my investment from this blockchain. The best way I can characterize these types are "self appointed" which I suppose was an inevitable part of having a decentralized blockchain.

But is it really "decentralized"? In the absence of any true form of governance, where we could actually vote for our representatives based upon something other than how big their stake (how much money they have) is in the Hive blockchain, I do not see how this gets any better. Literally a (very?) small handful of people control most of what is going on ... They are effectively unaccountable to anyone else and God only knows the best way to characterize their relationships with each other ...

Please forgive me, if I have "dredged up" some unpleasant memories. I truly wanted to just let you know I appreciated your thoughtfulness this morning. Having taken money "out of the equation," I am free now to just try and support people here and there. I do value loyalty and integrity. I suppose that is what keeps me going somewhat ...

Self appointed is exactly the term for loss of a better hierarchy that no one agreed upon. Not unpleasant memories. Just a sad state of affairs if this perceived "justice squad" is allowed to flourish and new members joining are exposed to it OR, word is spread outside of the internal "foolery". I just can't understand why those self-appointed don't see the potential damage to the brand they profess to love so much.

It truly boggles the mind. Take care.

P.S. Wow ... I just scrolled up through your post here and saw something new!

That was very impressive, however you did that - "roll up" the Spanish version of your post for those who click on it.

If you would be so kind, do you have a link to a post somewhere that covers what HTML wizardry is involved? Or ?...? Whatever the details are for how that feature works?

Given how much effort is clearly involved in doing that extra step, are you finding it rewarding? I would think having a Spanish version greatly expands your potential audience!

No need to invest your valuable time to reply to this, @justclickindiva. I have figured it out using the < details > and < summary > tags in HTML. This is really a very nice "upgrade" to what we can do in publishing on the Hive blockchain!

Thanks for providing me that glimpse of what is possible! 👍👍

That wizardry I can attribute to the PeakD team. They've made several improvements to their interface.

First, the SPANISH VERSION words is actually a banner. I'll have to search for the Discord Admin that made it available to all Hive members w/o credits:

Second, look at your menu in your drafts. It's also on Comments as well. It's called "SPOILER", the 3rd Icon (two arrows facing each other) from the end. Click on it where you want info hidden in your post.

Once you click the ICON, you'll get this below:

! [Hidden Spoiler Text] This is the spoiler content.
Optionally with more lines

REMINDER.

  1. replace the words inside the the brackets with the content you want.
  2. Remove the words outside the brackets on the same line.
  3. Remove "Optionally with more lines"
  4. The ">" is the divider between your paragraphs and keeps the text hidden.

Hope I wasn't too confusing.

Bless your heart! Thank you for this response, @justclickindiva. My upvotes are meaningless (wasted, as they are below the minimum threshold on Comments), but I have just made a reminder for myself. I will be sending you a Tip, once my 1st week's powerdown (just started this morning) is completed!
👍❤️👍

Bless YOURS! You are so welcome. And no need to reward. It's a pleasure to engage when I'm online. I take frequent rest stops and more naps. Senior citizen over here! and from the old school of thought. Do under others...

I'm breaking for supper. Talk to you later, and have a blessed rest of your day/evening/night. Take care.
