RE: Would I Leave Hive? ~ my Thoughts on Censorship, Jumping Ship, and my Future on this Platform.

OH lmao you were libragardener!!!! I loved libra gardener, but I have NO idea how I missed you were the same person! I went and looked at - and joined - Blurt early on, but found it was just full of negativity and slinging shade at Hive. Hive isn't perfect, but there's a LOT of good here. There's a lot of history and drama with some of the ex-Hivers there (not all of them) that went out throwing matches behind them. I mean, if you want to go, go, but don't have a big song and dance about it. We can make up our own minds and choose to make our own Hive, setting examples for what WE want it to be.

Yeah Libra.Gardener was my first project here on Hive. For a while I used both accounts, LG for sharing in the Hive Garden community and this one for my more herbalism and crafty endeavors. Back then I was very shy about showing my face and I don;t think I mentioned anything about my personal life so you not connecting the dots is totally valid! Then I had an "identity crisis" I sort of lost my faith in astrology and my garden was a disaster for about a year - I wasn't sure I could call myself a Libra or a Gardener anymore. Now I feel that calendula & craft is perfect, a little bit of herbs/garden and a bit of crafts too.

And I love what you say about Blurt & Hive ~ I waffled for a while about sharing my thoughts on this topic and I am so glad I did. Yours and the other comments on this post have clarified so much about this issue. I am totally open to joining another Hive-esque platform someday but I don't see why people have to throw matches behind them - as you so precisely put it. Can't people just peacefully share on both platforms? Thanks so much for sharing your opinion, it helps a lot!
