Is it a happy hardfork, or is it a Ned?
In the last 3+ years, the only days I have missed posting are forced by hardforks with unintended consequences. Not too bad, it is only a handful out of the last 1000 and more.
What I have learned is that do not expect the first post to post, so keep it short, just in case. I guess most people don't have a problem with keeping their posts brief these days. I prefer to get my thoughts out of my head fully, as it is pretty cluttered in there and I can't afford a cleaner.
Incase this does go through, expect some funkiness while things settle. For example, I noticed on my @Peakd blog roll comment numbers weren't registering correctly. It'll sort out in time, so don't worry too much. If there is anything major, don't worry too much either, as that'll sort out in time too.
Hopefully it is relatively painless.
The larger the community grows and the more apps that Hive supports, the more people will be affected by downtime and, the less people will know of what is going on. Scheduled maintenance is quite common on websites, especially financial sites like banks, but people are only patient for so long and on social media, that "long" is very short. Because of this, hardforks have to get smoother and smoother as more people onboard and the community decentralises further. Having said that, I am looking forward to HF25.
I will cut it off here, but remember, it'll be alright - give it time.
