They were instantly met with disappointment from those who were following Hiven and a host of various technical issues ranging from:
- A complete service outage[6].
- Client would hang for 3 seconds every time a character was typed[7].
- Exposed S3 bucket leading to data being compromised[8].
Before they pulled the plug and went silent again[9].
