How come some interfaces were explained how to port before the launch? Like peakd.com for example. Or hive.blog. Or Keychain. There are absolutely no doc available so all this was once again organized in stealth, like the 22.2 attempt. I'm also unfairly banned from the discord so I cannot even ask questions to try to integrate, yet all your puppets (real brainwashed community members) keep begging me to integrate DTube, which I can't.
Privilege has been given to people who are part of your hacker group (steempeak, steempress), and will irremediably profit a small minority just like it happened with the steem genesis and mining instructions.
We are back to the state of 2016 steem, except on top of it we have a precedent of thievery, unfairness, and a lot of bad press. Congratulations on your coup. @ned is dead, vive @ned.
I don't really think there was a need to make the hivefork as transparent as a typical hardfork. The secrecy for the hivefork was much more justified than the softfork secrecy.
Both could be defended by pragmatism, which isn't really a good justification in and of itself.
I'm not concerned that the hivefork was developed in secret. But I do think the hivefork completely invalidates the legitimacy of the softfork.
If instead of spending 9 days wringing their hands planning the softfork, instead taking those 9 days to get ahead on the hivefork while simultaneously talking to Tron and getting no answers, the hivefork would have come along, perhaps sooner, with none of the ideological compromise of censorship.
Anyway, that's hindsight. Hive is here. I think they might have nailed it.
