Hello, here the burning has been great!!!! 😃

I will give my opinion briefly.

Undoubtedly many of these things you have mentioned hurt Hive and I don't know to what extent the appearance of a meme coin called HBD, just like ours, can hurt us externally. A lot of things have happened because of that, I don't know why such a thing is happening and who is responsible for listing it under a name that already exists.

But what hurts Hive the most and these are two things that happen here within the blockchain is dishonesty and the use of economic power with malice.

Here those with economic power do everything in plain sight and are untouchable. They have multi-accounts, they milk Hive on a larger scale and in the end I really resent the incoherence of their speeches.
Aren't they here for the money? And why are they here, for philanthropy? Where do they place money in their scale of motivations for being in Hive? That may vary.

But when it comes to talking about milkers, all eyes turn to the third world. To those who have no possibilities, who found in Hive an escape to live with some decency, to provide a little for their families. Is this a bad thing? I don't see it that way. Besides, there is free will. I, myself, do you think I have all that HP because I get it through the pipeline? I have it because I have limited myself from many things. Even sometimes even from buying food that I need. And why do I do that? It's up to me. Because at the moment I don't have money at the top of my list but I can't deny you that I cherish the illusion of seeing Hive in 1 or 3 so I can have a few thousand in my account and solve important issues for me like buying a camera, fixing my house, travelling I'm 45 years old and I haven't left this fucking island.... but that's my business. And no one is obliged to vote on my posts either.

However, it's also up to me to dedicate all the time I dedicate to Hive, to comment and to support the creators who I think do a great job. You among them.
You have to be careful what you propose and how you propose it. What doors you knock on. Because there really are abusers everywhere and the worst are those who have power. I have always said that this is like life itself. I am not naming names here, nor am I interested in mentioning anyone. Everyone knows their own business.

I know a person who is building her house because her husband gives her the money, and I know what she has to put up with from that husband. By her own choice, of course, because she can't seem to find any other way to build her house. This is just one example. It applies here too because that's life.

Well, that wasn't brief.

I think they should focus on quality, on interaction, on fostering a sense of community and not selfishness. I see a lot of people who come and post and don't even take the trouble to look at what others are doing. The so called gurus who already have the votes secured, are the ones who do harm here. They power down left and right and no one says anything to them, but they are busy watching the poor people who get 3 dollars to eat that day.

I myself have sometimes said that they shouldn't do it, that they should power up their accounts, that they should balance and think a little bit about the future. But you have to be in people's shoes.

I repeat, quality, interaction, being seen to care about something... not about what people do with their money. That's a personal choice.
