Time To Say Goodbye

Funny how the stars sometimes align with your feelings. It was quite a while since I started thinking of quitting my Publish0x cross posting and now I'm kind of forced to do that. I've been doing that with my Leofinance posts for almost two years. I am not very active on Publish0x, but I did shared a few Leofinance branded posts a week over there.

I found of Publis0x from @trumpman and I kind of joined Leofinance because of him as well and both have been rewarding, although Leofinance has had the fun factor present as well and offered better rewards. Publish0x, as stated above, was nothing but a cross posting platform for me.

It's centralized... I guess you knew that by now. This thing is more like the Facebook or Twitter app, but dedicated to crypto blogging. It is not built on a decentralized blockchain as Hive is, although it is rewarding its users in cryptocurrency.

When I joined it it was BAT and ETH as rewards currencies used by the team for curators and content creators, than AMPL and FARM and now, if I'm correct about that, they use AMPL and some other token called STA... or something like that.

Why was I thinking to quit it? Well, one reason was the rewards tokens that always changed and most of them being poor listed ones, the other being the poor rewards that I got in comparison with what Hive has to offer and the third would be my lack of engagement over there. I was basically an outsider to that community.

Publish0x "has anticipated my move" and denied me the access to my account there before I would decide to abandon it by myself. No hard feelings at all. I have no clue why they've done that to me, but I'm fine with that. It is also a pointer at how reliable, resilient and ownership oriented Hive is.

This thing is the true WEB3. The last time I checked my total rewards earned on Publish0x these were something like $500 worth, or more, of mixed coins. A sum definitely not to be thrown away, but incomparable with what Hive has "given me". I was lucky enough, though, to take part in the Ampleforth airdrop about a year ago, thanks to having transacted via their network due to getting AMPL rewards from Publish0x.

Some $2,500 worth of FORTH tokens were airdropped to me just because I used their blockchain a few times and I only did that cuz of my activity on Publish0x.

It was definitely a winning experience, no doubt about that. I would like to know why they denied me the access to the platform, but not desperate about that. Hive remains my home, and as I commented on @gadrian's post earlier today I can clearly see myself as a user on this platform in 2030 and beyond. What about you, what's your experience with Publish0x and how does that compare with your Hive one?

Thanks for attention,
Adrian

Sort:  

i have not checked in there for a while now probably my account is not alive anymore either. My rewards where not quite that big. i think I never got to withdraw my Ampl but now I gotta go see.
fun fact I also found out about hive on there. can not remember whose post it was.

I withdrew my AMPL on Kucoin but I have to go through some KYC to recover my account and I don't want that.

Have they given you any reason why?

Didn't ask...

That’s some bullshit man! I had an account there but it’s not working for some reason. I didn’t know it was centralized but that’s not shocking sadly.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't care about it anymore. I'm happy with Hive.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wonder what reason they denied you access on your own account. I used p0x some time last year but left after a few posts. Hive is home to me also and it will be so :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No need to bother with Publish0x.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, we are here now :)

I never got involved but I remember reading that they didn't like Hive stuff over there so maybe that's why... either way, I hope you can find out the reason even if you don't intend to be active there anymore.

Success! You mined .9 HBIT & the user you replied to received .1 HBIT on your behalf. mine | wallet | market | tools | discord | community | <><

What's the HBITgame? | Card 4 of 4

Probably that's the reason. I have always linked my posts to LeoFinance.

If i crossposted onto another network it would have to be automatic. I'd probably build a tool to do it for me. But meh x) Not motivated to do that!

It was an easy job. Less than three minutes to do it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Idk, I'm not very patient hahah, 3 minutes is a long time! If I were to post everyday in a month, that's 90 minutes! Making a quick crossposting script can probably save me a lot of time long term if I were to crosspost regularly.

I don't know how to make scripts

It's relatively easy but it does require you to learn a tiny bit from a programming language and reading some documentations.

I guess so...

Hey @cryptosharon, here is a little bit of BEER from @isnochys for you. Enjoy it!

It's stuff like this that people don't get.

Everyone assuming something like Bluesky can just pop up and take everything out. Totally ridiculous. Centralized garbage is centralized. No centralized platform can scale up community like a WEB3 platform can. When every community member has a legitimate financial incentive to make the network better it can scale bigger than any corporation in the world.

For sure and the environment currently is pushing us in that direction. I can do fine without Publish0x, but as @tokenizedsociety said it is for sure due to my Hive branded content shared over there.

Project blank will take everything out. SOON...

I have sent out complaints years back hoping it would have been resolved but no. I just logged in after seeing yours and I’m still banned for no reason even after reaching out to them.

Fuck them!

i got the same message, i think they got the problem with the site, i will check. it is not you, it is them.
maybe they lost something or got hacked.

It doesn't really matter. I'm fine without it.

I generally use it to share my social media challenge for Splinterlands and to toss out my giveaways. It doesn't really earn much but I do reply to comments there every now and then.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I rarely interracted with folks over there, but I had about 2,000 of followers.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Byyyy the way, how do you get that leo voter vote? o: bigly!

I have no clue. I was amazed to see I got two of them today. They've been quite rare lately

That message you've shown is from Cloudflare. It's for DDoS protection, and looks like Cloudflare temporarily banned your IP from accessing the site. It's on stringent settings while the site is being DDoS attacked, which can and does stop even some of users who aren't malicious from accessing the site temporarily.

Thanks for the info.
