RE: We're leaving behind many dApps and utilities that will need replacing
Justin won't be getting Hive.

The only accounts who will not be included in the initial airdrop are those containing the Steemit Inc ninja-mined stake, and those who actively contributed to (and publicly declared support for) the centralization of the Steem Blockchain.
maybe he will step up and develop steem which is good for the loyalists
Hmmmmm, he hasn't shown much interest or good faith. Could but I see it as unlikely. But it could be, who knows, we'll see.
Also no need to be a designer with a nice frontend framework that makes sense to you it is simple enough to prototype in the browser and just have things look good by using default classes already provided.
I kinda mispoke. I'm just very very bad at making front-end things fast. I make nodejs apps in a flash, but when it comes to taking them to a browser, even if it's not aesthetic, I have to make buttons and things like that; it takes me a whole day just to do something simple. So I don't.
Instead, I usually just make programs that do things automatically like "retrieve this file from filesystem and do things with it every 12 hours". So my apps work more from a config file and predetermined behaviour than through user interaction with buttons.

I want to make a lot of stuff like SteemAuto for votes and posts. If you're willing to do those simple things you say, we could make some stuff together, but I have a strong aversion toward front-end. I've made a couple of things already, though, but no front-end I've made works anymore because I don't know how to fix these things.
Just thinking about front-end kills my motivation to do anything.
He might be buying more steem on binance, also since binance etc are doing drops to their customers then chances are he will get a few mil or 100thou hive anyway. He won't get hive directly yes but he will get hive.
I agree maybe I am spitefully hoping that he does just drop everything.
If the repos are on gitlab or github etc then I am sure I or anyone could always help with frontend and tweak things for you. If you wish the backend to not be open then at least supply a mock api if needed since it does get a bit more intricate with all this damn node and spa nonsense haha. not a fan but trying to get it down recently. If straight static pages then that is also good for a frontend dev to tweak or layout completely and you can just pull in the styles.
If you have something can always dm me or if you are making it open for all feel free to tag me and we can all help make it pretty :)
True, I hadn't thought of that.
Oh I'm not like that. I don't care much about my code. I'm not making any money from it anyway.
Yeah, I'll have to wait until the new nodes are announced, the front-ends and all of that. Luckily the code is the same so I can develop using Steemit node and move things there. I'll see if I can code a cross-poster for people to post on both chains at the same time.
Where can you be DM'd? Do you read Steem mentions? I don't have a problem with just tagging you and waiting for you to come in :P
Penderis everywhere, also in discord :) I do read mentions so that always good and considering it would be about something then maybe the mention can be in a post which is a brief that says "Hey assholes, you wanna help with this?" :)
Nice! :D I'm looking forward to calling upon your aid! :P
