New wiki project and future downvote handling
Hey everyone,

it's been a while, here's an update. The DeepHive idea was buried due to a lack of traction, but I'm confident that the concepts will be implemented by the big interfaces sooner or later.

There has been an ongoing discussion on Discord about the need of a wiki, but all attempts to implement one used centralized solutions. So, I wrapped my head around the options to create a hive-powered wiki software, and decided to start building. If you're interested in that, keep an eye out for follow-up posts.

Another topic that was discussed quite intensely was downvotes and HiveWatchers (HW). I've been supportive of HW for a long time, and there are some similarities in what curangel and they downvote. What gave me the final push to rethink my approach was seeing the amounts that these downvotes accumulate to, and in comparison how much goes to projects and/or automated posts through self votes or huge whales. 
So I have decided to switch focus from small-time abuse to the big guys for curangel. We won't be able to make a big impact due to our low VP, but it'll do more for the pool distribution than what we did the last months. I also dropped my support for the HW proposal - while I think the tools they provide to detect plagiarism are important, I don't think the impact they have justifies the high daily cost.

Last but not least I would like to ask you to check your witness votes and if you're not voting for me yet could you please give me some support there? It would mean the world to me!

Thank you for your trust and support, and see you around!
