I'm among the best 10 fiction writers on hive,

I am not sure where you got your statistics from. I didn't know there was a list of top fiction writers on Hive. I would love to see this list so I can read some of the other people's works.

I've now been advised by 4 different industry professionals (two successful authors & 2 agents) not to put any of my fiction on hive.

It is well-known that any Publishing house will ask if your story has been published anywhere. If yes, they will not want to publish your book, even if it is only part of your story. So that critique doesn't stand in your assessment of Dreemport.

unless some of the dreemport founders are literally giving their children free reign to read anything on the dreemport platform?

I can see you do not have children of your own, and if you do, I assume they are told never to come up behind you while you are sitting at your computer.

Dreemport is forthcoming about what is acceptable and not contentwise for their contests. Why enter if your story doesn't meet the criteria, and you know this? It is their rules, and they made the frontend. Why should it be changed just for one person?

Or this place will remain a wasteland of echo chamber SplinterLand posts, or speculative crypto posts that are wrong 50% of the time, and a limited audience will ultimately mean no mainstream adoption.

Any front end on Hive is entitled to make its own rules. Dreemport asking you to post PG13 stories is no different than Leo's Frontend saying your posts must be based on investing or crypto-related. The people who made the Frontends invested much money and time into making what they wanted.

You can always post your stories to Hive.blog without worrying about what you write.

That's when i stopped using dreemport. I think you have a big problem with spam, and if we're talking genuine engagement, value for value, i ran a mile within a week.

Why still use it if you do not like anything about Dreemport? If you have helpful suggestions for Dreemport I am sure @Dreemsteem would have been happy to have a DM conversation with you.

I hope the rest of your Sunday was spent in a better mood.

Happy Monday to you when you see this,
Snook
