RE: History of Hive COMMUNITIES and what is next (From my perspective)

Glad to see the discussion on this going, and looking forward to more communities features being implemented.

Options to set default/recommended/mandatory reward beneficiaries in a community would also be very useful, from my perspective.

One suggestion I would also have is that instead of different types of communities (member-only, open to all, etc.) to make it possible for a community to change its type via its settings. So, for example, a community can start as open to all and then as it grows it can become more restrictive.

This has been one of the main reasons we at OCD decided to have the communities in our incubation who want to, write up curation reports so that both the curators, leaders, moderators and anyone in the "team" working towards improving the community get some rewards back for their time since the framework wasn't there and abruptly stopped being developed for communities. It would be great to add mandatory beneficiaries but we'd also have to be careful with how they are used as to not give the current existing big communities an edge compared to new smaller ones not having the visibility to make it worth posting into them or authors feeling like they don't get anything out of it. Another thing I'm now wondering about this is how it'll affect cross-posts, if people will just originally post into a no beneficiary community and then just cross-post into one that has mandatory beneficiaries. Either way it'll be interesting to see how it evolves.

thanks for reminding me about the mandatory beneficiary feature option... that was actually part of the discussion back in the day.

And yes I have passed along that i also think changing the type of community in settings is important. (instead of deciding up front)

I was just going to mention it. Most of the reason I got into communities was the ability to incentivize mods and the community through beneficiaries. Maybe, the community itself can have its own token. Keep up the good work as I see communities playing a big role around here.

We could work on integrating hive-engine features into the community experience on PeakD. It doesn't have to be locked to only hive-engine stuff but they are for sure the best option right now for hive communities.
