Hive vs. Steem

It has come to my attention that on the account @ilovecoding which re-blogs articles that have the programming tag is full of re-blogs of things that have nothing to do with programming. The offending account @mathowl is creating these.

Here on the Hive chain, @mathowl doesn't do this. Perhaps the user just wants to poo-poo the Steem chain and the "Sun" or perhaps he is just knows that his memes will get flags here on Hive so it doesn't happen.

On the left, is a set of articles all related to programming at least in a tangential way, such as a call for programmers in the third one from the top. And no irrelevant memes. On the Steem side only one is not a meme.

The quality on Steem is not the same. It is rare for me to see a reward for my original posts beyond a cent or two but I have found a real positive change in the rewards I am getting and the amount of power my vote has.

Two block-chains, same amount of Stake in each. By percentage, about 15% more in Hive than in Steem due to the ninjamine removal and I have not powered up on either since the hard fork: But in Hive I find my vote is worth 3x that of my Steem vote.

Not only that, I am seeing more engagement in Hive than in Steem. It seems like the vast majority of capital has shifted into Hive from Steem
