Introducing Whaleshares
Established in 2018, Whaleshares is a censorship-free social network. It's a self-governing network that uses smart economic incentives to build mainstream and niche communities.
Smart incentives
Readers reward bloggers with tips, creating a friendly supportive environment and, at the same time, increasing visibility by automatically sharing the post. Tipping works much better than judgmental downvotes that are both disheartening and notoriously subject to abuse.
Earn daily rewards
All WLS holders can earn unconditional daily rewards by staking ("powering up") their WLS.
Get started fast
Whether you're writing long-form or micro-posts like tweets, you can get started instantly. New integration lets anyone with a Twitter account become a Whaleshares blogger in a snap.
Get started today. Create your account, start earning rewards, and enjoy creating and reading great content.
ionomy welcomes the Whaleshares community!
Did you see MegaDrive (Cryptodrive here) on Blurt is now trying to do something to bring back a form of downvotes called Red Cards where you can remove all the rewards from the post via voting (but not typical voting, a new protocol).
For some reason, things are not working quite right when they removed downvotes.
There are posts on Blurt trending that have one only vote.

I've not seen that. Just had a quick look, but there's a lot to digest. People always talk about bullying with downvotes, but that is a minority sport really. It tends to be those who got caught out abusing who complain the loudest. With things like SFR most people did not see all the good it did by removing rewards from crap posts.
I drop in on Blurt now and again, but there is not much happening apart from people milking it. That is not really interesting to me. I can see that they are trying to reduce abuse by charging for everything, but it seems there is profit to be made by 'circle jerking'. I did have some account leave a load of empty comments on my post, but I can't see how they benefit from that. There are people posting the same stuff there, on Steem and here to cash in.
A lot of trending Blurt posts have no comments. So much for engagement. I am happy with the activity I see on Hive in general.
