They argue that the platform prioritizes attracting investors and price action over creator rewards, describe Hive as hostile to investors and favorable to dumpers, and lament declines in project viability, developer activity, and content quality. The post conveys skepticism about changing the status quo and predicts little will change, while acknowledging personal stake and opinions on post rewards and content value.
