What I like about Blurt is no downvoting and a friendly community.

So what holds me back? Firstly it's like Steemit in 2017 - there is very little development, and I must admit I like to see some bells and whistles,

And it's only a small crew of people compared to Hive. I'm following about 300 people on Hive, and most of them will tag their posts #vyb if we keep reminding them for a few weeks.

Only about 30 of them are on Blurt, and if I had to I could run with that, but if we could get VYB firing on all cylinders I think it could really take off fast
