Much as I miss good old days of Steemit in it\u2019s heyday (2017) when my feed was filled with all sorts of awesome full length blog posts, and many of the best posts got over 50 comments from interested and engaging real people, things change, and we have to move with the times.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Like many of my online friends these days, I have accounts on multiple platforms with lots of different feeds to look at. The blatant corruption on Hive which has encouraged so many to move elsewhere, is very well summarised in this post, which names many of the worst cabal accounts who are doing the malicious downvoting:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/peakd.com\/hivecommunity\/@world-travel-pro\/private-investigators-hired-coming-revelations-will-blow-your-mind<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Away from Hive, I\u2019m on Bastyon and Gab, and have my own WordPress blog, as well as very underutilised accounts on Blurt, Bitchute, and Flote, and a few others, even including Facebook, that I never use. And my old Steemit accounts are all still there too, with much of the best content I\u2019ve ever posted online.<\/h4>\n

My favourite Steemit account (I had more than a dozen) was sift666 –\u00a0https:\/\/steemit.com\/@sift666<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

And that in a nutshell is why I powered down my 250k of Hive Power, and why my vote on Hive is now worthless. But I haven’t given up on the Hive blockchain, I\u2019ve shifted all my focus to\u00a0https:\/\/www.vybrainium.com<\/a><\/h5>\n
That means I will probably only see your post if it has the\u00a0#vyb<\/a>\u00a0tag, and I will definitely only give it a meaningful vote if it has that tag. If I vote for posts that are not tagged\u00a0#vyb<\/a>\u00a0my vote is worthless but it still uses up my voting power, so generally I don\u2019t.<\/h5>\n

If I like your post on my Peakd feed but it\u2019s not tagged, I might give it a 5% vote as a sign of appreciation, but more likely I won\u2019t see your post at all because it wasn\u2019t on my Vybrainium feed.<\/p>\n

In these stressful times, art is a break from all the conspiracy updates. After researching stuff like the history of globalist eugenics leading to the corona psyop, for the past 15 years, I\u2019m burned out. New Zealand is pretty full on these days, not like Ukraine, but maybe more like a little sunny Pacific island version of Canada.<\/p>\n

So on Vybrainium I often look at art and photo posts. In many cases I can\u2019t be arsed writing comments, especially on my tablet, but I do look at them and upvote them. Some of my favourite VYB artists and photographers include:<\/p>\n

@in2itiveart<\/a>
\n@maxwellmarcusart<\/a>
\n@artgrafiken<\/a>
\n@tattoodjay<\/a>
\n@teesart<\/a>
\n@brunonacif<\/a>
\n@barbarabezina<\/a>
\n@mmckinneyphoto13<\/a>
\n@isaria<\/a>
\n@barski<\/a>
\n@sharker<\/a>
\n@driptorchpress<\/a>
\n@doze<\/a>
\n@veeart<\/a>
\n@d-pend<\/a><\/p>\n

But there is a lot more art on my Peakd feed than on Vybrainium, most of which I\u2019m missing.<\/p>\n

\"image.png\"<\/p>\n

Like a broken record I\u2019ll say it one last time and tag a few names here. But this is probably the last time I\u2019ll go on about it and from the first of March I\u2019m going to mostly stop looking at my Peakd feed, even though it\u2019s the best front end, simply because I don\u2019t have the time, and my Hive curation is only worthwhile on Vybrainium.<\/p>\n

Here are some artists and photographers I\u2019d like to be able to upvote, so please tag your posts\u00a0#vyb<\/a>:<\/h5>\n
