Thanks for the reply and the feedback about the series! You raise good points about the potential for 3D printers to decentralize manufacturing and also the note that centralization can breed parasitism.

I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to do with regards to hive. I rely on @steempeak for templates and scheduling, and as far as I know the STEM tokens are staying with Steem for the time being. I guess I'll experiment with both after SteemPeak launches their hive compatible site. To be honest, though, I'm not thrilled with either of the choices.

I see both of the factions as alternative centralized visions, so I was content with the stand-off as a form of decentralized equilibrium. My only hope now is that competition between between the two chains could also create a sort of pressure that will bring out the best in both. Of course, that would depend on STEEM surviving a massive dump from the current whales and also on the hope that the Tron Foundation doesn't just cut its losses and run. The whole thing is very depressing to me, and I might even just take a break for a week or two to let things settle out a little.

Anyway, I fully expect to be on hive, but it may not be right away or every day, because I certainly can't find the time to do one of these posts daily on both chains.

I'm hoping Hive quickly proves to be a hotbed of sedition and sultrily seduces STEM over. I don't wanna post on both chains, and I am damn sure not Sun Yuchen's property. Hive or bust, I reckon.

Hope that's true for you and STEM as well.
