If there was no "Show" button or if it was not possible to fork the steemit.com codebase and build your own interface with everything shown no matter what, then I'd agree with you.

Again, please understand the word "Censorship." You were not censored beyond the censorship you did to yourself by editing your original post. If you don't like the steemit.com interface hiding images the influential members of the community who have the most invested into Steem (and thus, the most to lose by its failure) think is harmful for the network, then you are free to build your own interface along with those who agree with you.

I think the automatic hiding of images (note: "hiding", not censoring. The images are still there in the blockchain and even here on steemit with a simple click of the "show" button), is one of the best features they implemented recently. If enough people agree with me, this interface will continue to prosper. If enough people disagree, a new interface on top of the blockchain will prosper.

Either way, people's desires can be met without coercion. I hope if you continue to interact with members of this community you will choose more inclusive language in the future and respectfully disagree with people for the purpose of helpful dialogue instead of name calling and negative, emotional outbreaks.

Sort:  

Manipulating the format of a blog which was formatted so that text and pictures to hand and hand within each other is censorship.

It's all good brother. I accept your criticisms and welcome them. I won't down vote because I disagree.

This thing is in beta, maybe I'll come back later but for now it's too centralized for my liking.

Content is at complete mercy of whales and most of the steem was mined by its developers so whole platform and currency is at complete mercy of them.

People nowadays are too easily offended.
*edit: steemit is in beta.

If you feel strongly enough about that view, I hope you contribute an alternate interface to the blockchain which would support your vision and sort the content as you prefer. As they say, "Code is law."

Thank you for a civil dialogue.
