Want to SEE A RANT??!!!

Many, many hours I spent, having fun editing some photos. Then I came to my Ecency blog, to do a post with six photos. Because I'm a serious blogger, and the article was about photo editing.

But when I hit publish, I got 'insufficient credits.' I'm beyond fed-up with that message, and I believe many others feel the same. Not everyone is a spammer, yet the Hive algorithm treats even people with RC's of 40 like crap.

I'm discouraged, disheartened. I waited a whole week to get my RC up to 100%, and now it's at 34%, and the post not published.

Is Hive a serious blogging network, or not? Should I make childish short posts of 50 words only? Is it any wonder so many newbies on Ecency leave after trying to do a post and getting that message, and that Hive has just 50 000 users instead of 50 million?

I'm now seriously considering jumping ship to Blurt or elsewhere. Yes, you can say 'bye Felicia'. But keep in mind that many others won't even bother airing their grievances, they'll just leave. And five years from now you'll wonder why Hive didn't grow as we all expected it would. Where's the world's biggest bloggers, why aren't they on Hive? Now you know.

Anyway, so I had to go publish the post I worked on, on my SteemIt blog. No issues. Except, of course, that SteemIt seems to be dying after the hostile takeover it had a year or so ago.
