When the fork happened, the platform completely shut down. I was reading that many nodes were not on the latest version, so I went in and unvoted anyone that was not running the most current code. I did not do this at first. It was after more than a day of chaos. I have not been back to the list since that day.
The platform, hive.blog, is still not working. One in twenty attempts to post or comment succeed, votes are not marked as such and then error when I vote saying I already voted, and it has been more than a month.
If the platform every gets back on track, I will go through the list again and evaluate witnesses using the criteria that I have always used.
If it does not, I will be selling out again (just finished dumping all my steem) and moving to something that works.

Updage: This comment did go through via hive.blog, I was all set to post via peakd if not.
