RE: how to Cast/Withdraw Witness Votes & Withdraw App Permissions
Its not the chain that is censored, it is the UI that is centralised as well as API's that are centralised. That said, anyone can run API nodes, but apparently nobody does other than Steemit Inc. The chain may be possible to be distributed, interface can never be. But that is not the question I asked, you stated HIVE was just in time before all censorship happens, and my statement (in form of a question) is that HIVE and more specificially the actions of some of the ex-Steemians are the result of censorship happening. Action/Reaction kinda thing.
I agree. The chain is technically still not censored, but atm it basically is just a fancy database. There used to be a lot of API nodes. Also the interface can be distributed, by running your own, and e.g. Steempeak does that and esteem did that, but esteem is now also over to Hive. I do hope the people here manage to build stuff up again... but I was kinda waiting for Hive to happen from the moment after Justin Sun came in and it was just talk about TRON, so I could do meaningful things with the blockchain without fear.
