TOP NEWS THIS WEEK: Users experience issues after Twitter places daily limits on reading posts, supposedly to combat data scraping. We've all known all along that Twitter, Facebook, and legacy social media platforms have data issues. If user data isn't being hacked, it's being sold. Or scraped. In this case, it's generative AI that is causing the problem. The very fact that Twitter must resort to extreme measures is proof enough that decentralization is the cure. Instagram is launching a Twitter competitor called Threads. The significance of this event is yet to be seen. Twitter threads have become their own art form. They've basically transformed Twitter from a short-form content platform to a longer-form content platform, but the content is still in essence "short form." After several years of Google favoriting long-form content, will content marketers now insist that short form is the way to go? Is every platform on the planet now going to push short-form content, or their own version of threads? At which point, does threaded content become overkill? If everyone is trying to do the same thing, does it matter which platform you're using? All the Web2 platforms have the same issues. That's why I'm bullish on Web3, short-form or long-form.

On Hive: @blocktrades announces it is sunsetting its crypto trading service. I understand the reasons, but this saddens. Blocktrades was the only exchange I used for buying, selling, and trading Hive and STEEM. Now, I'll have to find an alternative.

On Hive: @quochuy shares the witness earnings report for June 2023. It's interesting to see how much the witnesses are earning on Hive. No one is getting rich. If Hive is a Ponzi scheme as some people claim, it's a poorly designed one. The top witnesses aren't even earning $5,000 a month.
On Hive: @acesontop tells his own story about cutting ties with Facebook to join decentralized social media. Personal testimonies are the best recruitment tool.
