I have had a Steemit account along with a lot of other social media sites for some time now.  I post almost the same content across the sites, but it is always original material I have spent my time on to develop.  I went along with the move from Steemit to Hive because it was billed as the "community" option.  Now it turns out they DO NOT want me to post content there unless I pay for it, or "earn" some more in their point system.

I can't see how this is ever going to take off.  What a joke.
