As usual with @justineh, everything all pretty darn close to the happy path. And no mention of the biggest buzzkill of all: The way the unchanged dust level treshold interacts with the totality of HF21 inflation split and reward curve changes.
On the upside. I think (hope) part of the doom is already behind us. The markets rejected this HF as expected, but not as hard as it could have. It's a pity the steepish market value drop after the announcement EIP was to be part of HF11 didn't act as a wake-up call, but HD21 could have easily been rejected to below the 0.00001 BTC mark. The fact that it wasn't, and that unless we have an other user lockout, probably won't, gives that silver lining to this most fragile of times in the history of STEEM.
My doom and gloom post will come when needed, until then I’ll leave that to you 🙂
As I stated, this is a simple overview to just try to help users have some sort of expectations of what the changes with look like. As I see more, I will share more.
Feel free to make your own posts if you feel mine aren’t sufficient. That’s the beauty of decentralization 😉
You do normie talk a 1000x better than me. That's probably when nobody ever listens to me when talking about dust level. Your overview would have been more complete with a discussion, even a happy path discussion of comment up-voting IMHO.
I definitely could have included more, things I just didn’t even consider. I don’t purposely leave things out, just sometimes things slip my mind.
As an example, right after I published this post I ran across a comment of an author who thought all rewards under the curve threshold would go to 0. I had no idea this was a confusion of some and tried to rectify it in the comment, but yes that could of been helpful in the post.
I may edit it tomorrow to include these things or write another one in the coming days.
One thing though is that I try to keep these normietalks simply informative and not opinion heavy. Clearly my opinions slip in sometimes but I do try to keep the posts pretty general so they can just be used as a source of information and not my own “agenda”. I think that’s important.
Dust vote is a concern of mine, but it’s one of those that falls into the -lets wait and see what this looks like area.
I can promise that I will continue to do my best to help these concerns be heard and push for solutions as we move forward with these changes. They will not be ignored.
doesn't @dustsweeper take care of this?

There are a couple services that do, yes. It’s just that the current SP needed to reach the “dust threshold” will be doubling after the fork. It would be good for more to learn about dustsweeper and dustbunny etc to help counter this. I’ll try to spread the word a bit.
dustbunny? lol. might sack the sweeper and get the bunny :)
Yes, it’s so cute too! 😁

Just did an attempt. Doom and gloom with a silver lining ;-)
Tried to make it complementary to the stuff you discussed already and most of all, focus on the incentives, not so much the happy path or the worst case scenario.
You'll probably still think it's a doom and gloom post ;-)
