Thinking of starting a brand-new blog on Ecency. But I remember the annoyance of only be allowed to make a single blog post, and gone are the 'fuel' to post more. Then having to wait for it to fill up

The internet's mascot animal, and a superb choice. I love dogs, but cats make me melt. They are really the most wonderful animals on the planet. I'm not sure that they get tired of city-life, it's just

Made my 'Wave' on Ecency, replying to your comment in PeakD. :D Personally I like the latter's UI more, but haven't been on HIVE for like a year. It bothers me that one cannot do two or three blog posts

They screwed up their own country, then ran to South Africa, committing another crime of 'invading' it by not going through the proper channels. Corruption is rife in both countries, and as you say, how

The hearts of civilized people go out to each and every Ukrainian. Do not let the negative, pro-Russian, immoral scum put you off with their comments. Ukraine didn't invade Russia, Ukraine isn't the dirt

My heart bleeds for Ukraine, and what so many good people have to go through. 😢 If I could get my hands on Putin, nobody on this planet would be able to save him, I'll tear him to pieces. However, every

Your coding looks pretty good to me. I think your self-esteem may be a bit shot, with you saying you're unemployed for nine months now. Easy solution: Make a list of 10 freelance platforms, like Fiverr

Thanks to this post I'll check out Splinterlands too. But frankly, I'm a bit fed up with sucking up to people on Hive just to get upvotes. I want to blog, even about unpleasant stuff like the Ukraine war,
