-This account is going dormantSeeing a lot of people over at Hive. Seems to be more Twitter like in terms of not having to deal w/ different servers to sign up on or federation.
Tony@majornelson Hive feels like an Instagram clone to me. You can make text posts only but all I see are pictures.
Andrew Clement@SharkBytes @majornelson seems to have a few issues though https://shelter.moe/@fenarinarsa/109385060635819106

I see that #Hive is trending so I tried it and so far it's quite unfinished and suspicious. - There's no web version (a big no for me) - The app forbids to use or post media unless you give access to ALL your media on iOS. This is a HUGE red flag to me. (on iOS, when an app asks for a media, you can give it only a selection of media to avoid hack/download of all your media library (you now, privacy etc). Hive doesn't accept that and asks for all access) Also no 2FA, no DPO (so not GDPR compliant for privacy)... Just for you to know.
@anclement @majornelson add to that the @ username is not unique. There could be 100 Major Nelson’s. https://glitch.lgbt/@EposVox/109389588122076508
@SharkBytes @majornelson on mastodon or hive?
@anclement @majornelson Hive. Although that post seems to be taken down now
@SharkBytes @majornelson wait. So hive usernames aren't unique?
Also I heard it was ran by just two people
@anclement @majornelson that’s what the post I referenced said with screen shots, but sadly it looks like it was removed. I’m looking into it more.
@anclement @majornelson here are the screenshots from the post, not sure why it was removed.
@SharkBytes @majornelson that is a major oversight
