Steem, Hive, Blurt... Pick Your Poison, Eh?
Alright, so people wanna know where to spend their time. Steem, Hive, Blurt... they all started in the same spot but man are they different now. And lets be honest, none of 'em are perfect. Each one has its own flavor of headache, you just gotta decide which one you can live with.
Steem's the OG. It's a corporate chain now, which ain't my vibe but it's predictable. You know who's in charge. If you just wanna post your stuff and not get dragged into governance wars, it is what it is. It's stable.
Blurt is the simple life. No downvotes means way less drama, which is a big plus for a lot of folks. It's a quiet neighborhood... maybe not a ton of action, but if you just wanna chill and write without getting into digital slap-fights, it's probably the most peaceful option of the three.
And yeah, Hive is where ya boy is at. It's got the most people, most apps... and the most headaches. Man, the drama. It can be a real crab bucket, with everyone scrappin' over the reward pool and cliques gettin' all the attention. It ain't for the faint of heart and it can be exhaustin. But... it's decentralized. It's our mess to fix or to brake. That's the trade-off for real freedom, eh?
So there ya go. Corporate predictability on Steem, quiet simplicity on Blurt, or chaotic freedom on Hive. Pick your poison. I still think Hive has the most long-term potential, but don't say I didn't warn ya about the nonsense.
I blog on all 3
Hive is good for HBD Savings and Delegation to @Ecency but terrible for blogging if you get on the CEO downvote Blacklist. Hive hates Ai, YouTube and Bitcoin
Blurt is good for total Freedom of Speech and Earning with Short Films and Ai Experiments with Blurt.media and upvotes from @jsup @upvu @blurtbooster and @blurtpowerbot
Steem is also good for Free Speech Blogging and upvotes via delegation to @jsup and @upvu
