Well Hive has a broad range of front ends, many are open source such as Condenser (the app that runs on Hive.Blog, which anyone can run). Some probably are running on AWS, plenty are not.

I guess it was just for the steemit front end.
It was likely for Steemit front end services and for Steem RPC nodes. The equivalent for Hive would be Condenser (or other front end) and Hive RPC nodes. Both are running on many different platforms.
Back then steemit was the only one not taking your rewards when posting if i recall but was clunky. Though hive.blog is becoming clunky for me. I wasnt too happy with peakd due to hivesigner but ill have to try it again. Whats your fav hive frontend? Im assuming hashkings?🤓
I tend to use multiple. Hive.blog for browsing usually, peakd.com for some more advanced actions, and d.buzz for microblogging.
If you use keychain with peakd it is much better than with hivesigner.
Ah, so im not the only one with hivesigner issues! @josephsavage told me about keychain before... Btw is this Dan from Hashkings?
Nope. I'm not really familiar with hashkings.
Ahhh i see the 'hive'kings... I saw your post in my feed. Sorry im multitasking too...
Also... Where did the 6 million in debt come from or rather how was it aquired and by whom? The initial HF away from steem?
Was that much invisible assets acquired out of thin air but in the form of debt? I dont know i turned that into a loaded question. Perhaps i should make a post asking these questions.
Hive Dollars and Steem Dollars are both forms of debt on their respective chains. They mostly come from the normal issuance of tokens (author rewards and funds for the DAO are paid out as Hive/Steem Dollars). The printing of these debt tokens increases during a bull market because the rate at which they are created is based on the price of Hive/Steem.
I recently wrote a post explaining Hive Dollars. You can also check the explanation in the original Steem whitepaper.
This is not the main source, but Hive did elect to carry over the debt at the time of the fork. We did not have to, and other Steem forks such as Blurt did not. In my view carrying over the debt is a sign of legitimacy of Hive as continuation of Steem project.
