RE: Happy Holidays From Steemit!
Steem is a decentralized blockchain and no one should have the authority to pin posts and have any kind of advantage.
steemit.com however is a centralized interface, and they can do whatever suite them, and i for one kinda neutral about this, i don't like it neither dislike it, but if you don't like it, you can use another interface.
...or we can complain about them making user-hostile product decisions. “You can use something else” does not make one immune from critical feedback.
its their company ... steemit is not the blockchain , you are posting and reading on the application maintained by steemit.inc , they have every right in the world to pin whatever they like on top or bottom . If i were to complain about anything its why they're not lobbying for ad-money but i can think of a reason b/c i have the same problem : independence, they dont wanna leash themselves to having to explain yearly to the board.
No one's stopping anyone from writing their own program to run off of steemchain. #Busy did it , #musing did it , #steemstem did it ... anyone who wants can write their own pin-free application but as the americans say
"those who can, DO ... etc..."
:)
happy merry
(i have no clue why i react to any of this)
technically that's what i said,, please read again
i stand corrected :)
