People being vocal does not mean they are representative of the larger community. This post is top of trending, so it is pretty visible. I have seen some people they fear that sort of exposure, but is it so bad? The malicious downvotes are a tiny part of Hive and just a small price to pay for the freedom. I have been working with someone to discourage some of those that are just an annoyance. I want Hive to be a friendly place, but some people love conflict.

I totally agree. My thinking was more along the lines of... if I'm writing a piece on the value of cussing, tagging a bunch of dogmatic Christians is just poking the bear. Similarly, if I'm posting a video that Hive's biggest draw is crypto-rewards, tagging a bunch of anti-reward purists is unnecessary conflict. If people happen to find this piece because it's visible, so be it. In my entire time here, I've never shied away from people's opinions.
I love your focus on making hive as friendly as possible, thanks for all you do! 🙏
