We haven't seen what it is yet, but I think the whole point is so that people can kinda post whatever they feel like at the time and not worry about someone crying "shitpost" to them.

Those people will still have the option of writing big, long blog posts. A lot of people these days have no interest in writing longform pieces and just want to interact through a million little pieces of text and a few images.

Basically, Hive is a great idea for a perfect world, but that world no longer exists, if it ever did. This new, microlayer of Hive is probably more in line with how people interact in 2021 and beyond.

The games are already doing this to a certain extent, making people interested in Hive who may have no interest in writing content. I'm very excited to see where Hive goes in 2021, though I'm always also a little skeptical, for safety's sake.
