Gestern trafen wir uns zu Halloween in einer neuen Location, MIKES bei der der U6 Burggasse (Urban-Loritz-Platz) in Wien. Das Lokal war gemütlich und ansprechend, nicht so voll/laut wie befürchtet.
Habe die Gelegenheit genutzt und bin als Guy Fawkes zum Meetup gegangen, war witzig, vergesst den 5. November nicht, Wahlen in den USA 😂
Es war uns auch eine Freude zwei neue Gesichter beim Stammtisch begrüßen zu dürfen, @danaandwild und @godfish Hive OG, der extra aus Prag angereist ist.
Haben auch über Hive geplaudert, Snaps, Creators Meetup in Graz (Anfang Mai 2025), 3speak gerade down, und auch das schwierige Thema Downvotes.
Für die Einen sind Downvotes wichtig, für die Balance und um Plagiate und unfaires Verhalten zu bekämpfen, für die Anderen richten sie mehr Schaden als Nutzen an.
Vor Kurzem wurde auch ein Bot-Netzwerk mit 17 Tausend Spam-Accounts aufgedeckt, das unter anderem älteren Content von anderen Usern gestohlen und repostet haben soll. Krass.
Was sagt ihr dazu?

Yesterday we met at Halloween in a new location, MIKES near the U6 Burggasse (Urban-Loritz-Platz) in Vienna.
The place was cozy and appealing, not as crowded/loud as feared.
I took the opportunity and went to the meetup as Guy Fawkes, it was funny, don't forget November 5th, election day in the US 😂
It was also a pleasure to welcome two new faces to the meetup, @danaandwild and @godfish Hive OG, who traveled all the way from Prague to Vienna.
We also chatted about Hive, Snaps, Creators Meetup in Graz (beginning of May 2025), 3speak currently down, and also the difficult topic of downvotes.
For some, downvotes are important for balance and to combat plagiarism and unfair behavior, for others they do more harm than good.
Recently, a bot network with 17 thousand spam accounts was uncovered in hive, which is said to have stolen and reposted older content from other users. Insane.
What do you think? Have you already visited a hive meetup?

Great report Viki. Wish you a great birthday party! If @danaandwild wants also a badge I just need 0.5 HBD. Unfortunately I don't have some liquid HBD left. Just unstaked some HBD. Takes time...
Schön,dass ihr euch regelmäßig trefft! :)
Das mit dem Spam-Netzwerk ist echt krass!
It's really wonderful meeting up with great Hiveans, like minds to discuss a great community.
Das Flex gibt es immer noch?
Da war ich vor vielen Jahren mal mit ein paar Freunden als wir in Wien an der Poker Team Europameisterschaft teilgenommen haben, das wär eine schräge Location.
Und der Weg dorthin war gepflastert mit "netten Menschen" die uns alle gute Laune Pillen verkaufen wollten. 😂
!BEER
Yep, Flex gibt's immer noch, waren nachher noch im Chelsea bei der U6.
I hope you have fun and at the same time come up with something useful for Hive.
Thank you for your witness vote!

.Coole Runde! Hab schon gelesen, dass das nächste Meetup zu deinem Gebtag ist 😉
Echt krass mit den 17,4K Spam-Accounts. Soeben den Artikel von Louis gelesen. Heftig.
It looks like a nice meetup.
It's scary to see so many spam accounts and how they were stealing content.
You have a meetup with Hive's popular people. It's good. Some downvotes are harmful and some downvotes are good, of course.
No I haven't but will, hopefully, one day.
17k spam accounts is wicked, really.
I’m glad you had fun and met so many people
Enjoy!
Alles Liebe an Euch
oh wow, da wäre ich jetzt auch gerne :)
Jeder Tag ist ein Traum
Komm her ☺️
Ich vermiete 2 flats
Happy Hive meetup
The pictures are beautiful and shows that you had fun
great meet up! I hope everyone had fun.
Never been on a meet up... The bot network was really bad, too bad you can't nuke it really, new accounts will come up
Really so nice! I wish to be able to attend a meeting as this someday.
