Hello everyone, my beautiful hive naija people, it's another beautiful weekend and we are so happy to have you here once again. It’s another weekend to buzz the hive blockchain even as we connect with ourselves. It’s just feel good to get everyone together every weekend to talk about random things and just have fun. But this week, I don’t want us to just talk about any random things but about the amazing men in our lives.
OBJECTIVE
As we all know, Sam`s Hangout is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigeria brethren through engagement and it's also now concerned of the well being of each and everyone who is part of the engagement. This account was opened to make the engagement more personal and official. You can find the INTRODUCTION POST to read more about the purpose and aim of this account and also do well to follow the account so as to know when a post is made.
Weekend engagement every weekend on Hive was originally created by @ galenkp as he founded the Weekend-Engagement community and initiative. I thought it would be nice to have a weekend engagement too in a Nigerian way for everyone that cares to be a part of it.
Moving forward, Aside chatting and gisting here in the comment section, Feel free to post your weekend activities in the Weekend-Experiences Community.

Mama 🥰
You always have Owambe to attend 😅
Enjoyment 💯
Lolz
That's nice! It's been long I attended a party. I hope I do that soon and I hope you enjoy yourself at the party. Don't forget to bring takeaway for us o.🥰
Happy Saturday people of this hangout.
Happy Saturday to you too !
Happy Weekend Guys 🥰
Happy Weekend Vanilla !
Menh I'm here chilling and watching Chelsea's match hoping they don't break my heart today again 😂
I rested well today because this past week was mentally stressful for me.
My laptop had issues so I wasn't really happy and I couldn't also post on hive cos my phone isn't in its best state.
The most draining part was because I had to prepare for an international conference where I was one of the speakers. Its a conference by IAHR Young professional Congress hosted by China.
I was able to hussle a laptop and did my presentation yesterday, we thank God.
Yeah, so that's the summary of my week and weekend, LOL.
Working on it, but a really great trip is coming soon, greetings!
Happy Saturday!
For me, no party, owambe, or wedding. Just chilling at home with myself and phone. It's been a boring weekend here.
I had owambe plans today but my ill health stopped me from attending. So, I've just been indoors, hugging my pillow, chatting with friends online and perusing the hive frontend.😅 I hope everyone else had or is a wonderful saturday...❤️
Wow am first to be here
Iw as first was just typing
You will explain tire. 😌
I swear no evidence
That’s just it. 😂
How ur side
I’m just here and you?
No be lie ooo,no evidence
😂 life ehn
It is moving. If we like we should stay in one place. 😂
You typing off, lol
Welcome
Okay
Top 3 apps right now Discord, Whatsapp, TikTok they are so many let live it like this u se that app t
Let me start with discord first
The settings and coding of it cant make me leave it most especially when building a community each day you learn new things when building a community type of bot or self bot that do command without your intervention is something else
WhatsApp it a home of cruise omo i love cruise alot i can chat tire am receive infomation and most importantly is a place for fast selling business
Tik-Tok omo if am bored i go tik-tok to kill my boredom that the only reason forget the fact mtn dey do ke shege but i love tik-tok i watch crusie like mad
I agree with you, Discord is part of my top 3 apps too. I prefer instagram to TikTok now though. But I use both. 🥰
I have instagram account i dont enjoy using it as much as i enjoy tiktok
Yeah. That’s normal.
I honestly can't choose between both apps, but I think Instagram still does it for me, especially with their interface.🥰 Happy weekend, Hope!
So na Tik Tok Dey drain ur data daily
Rick kids
Abeg tell him o
He no go hear
Lol, so you don't watch tiktok constantly like that,? There are so many fun there
I don't even hv the app
Lol
I don't know why I always feel strange when a guy says he likes tiktok as a consumer app not as a creator... Anyway I guess we all have our preference...
Omo, tiktok is my joy giver now, so many funny act online there
Hello Everyone 🎉
Happy Weekend Guys 😊
Happy weekend, Vanny. 🥰
Happy Weekend, Hopey 🥰

Y’all have a lovely weekend by the way! 💜
Time is flying fast i forgot today is friday
The yr no want delay ...days and weeks are flying to meet 2026😍
Haha, mama Abeg leave me o. 🤣🤣🤣
Its not just you, I feel frustrated discovery its dawn while I haven't gotten enough sleep 😂
It was just last week we entered November 🤦 I can't still believe that Christmas is around the Corner 😂
The year just keeps moving. We thank God for life. 🤲🥹
Happy weekend everyone.
Facebook , Whatsapp and Ecency.
My top 3 app,
Even without airtime, with Facebook and Whatsapp i can communicate with who ever and also make use of the call feature.
For ecency, since I was introduce to this blogging app, I don't think there's any day that I have not work with it.
My top three app are very simple and straight ...
Chrome....for hiving activities daily because money must be made to survive this life biko..
Discord....another extension appo to keep connecting and earning...
Watsapp....for my family and friends , where we finish gist daily and kill boredom ,mingle and smile and be happy ...life continues
Happy weekend guys
Kachifo!
I always open Instagram, Binance, and TikTok.
Those are the three apps I always open.
I also have an app for online games and betting.
My top there app
Facebook : to watch reels and novels during my leisure
WhatsApp : to stay connected with friends and family
Cires: for business only
I actually have more than three apps I pop into on a daily basis but for the sake of the topic;
Chrome - ever since I joined hive, chrome has made it to the top app I never let a day go by without popping into to, either work on my posts or scroll through various authors and communities.
Discord - thanks to the different communities which has theirs servers rooted in discord, I never cease to make use of it for chatting and other activities.
Lastly would be WhatsApp where I chat away my day, lol. Have hearty conversations with friends and loved ones and all that.
@cious, @marsdave and @yechee, come and give us a peep into the love of your lives on your devices 😉.
Oh, dear. You're so on point! You see chrome and WhatsApp, I love them so much! Very resourceful. For me, it will be Chrome, Twitter and WhatsApp because they serve very important purposes that others don't at a go. And the clean interface of these apps makes it easier for me to just use everyday.🥰
I love Discord but if we take hive away, I may not have anything serious to do on the app every other day. Or what do you think?
It's going to be quite hard for me to pick my top 3 apps though because they are a lot of apps I use.
Looking through the comments I want to presume those people not mentioning their bank app don't like money or food because me I can't do without it ooo 😂
Anyway let's assume I have to pick just three, my bank app comes first, then I will choose chrome because I would be able to enter almost any social media from there and do a lot.
The third will be my pocket FM please. I don't joke with it before I will start thinking of my life problems...
The fact that I can use Whatsapp web, discord, Facebook and almost any other app on chrome makes chrome kinda universal. Although it might be difficult with phone, because I would have to be using desktop mode to get the very best out of it, I feel it's still worth it if I can only keep three...
Since the day I discovered pocket FM, I've almost never been bored. On the road, in the office, almost anywhere I am, it's either I am listening to a series or I am downloading new series. The stories are just too catchy...
LOL. KenOwl must not forget his belly.😅 Bank apps are essential but considering we have POS scattered around + ussd, I think I can do without it. Besides, I hate doing transfer. So it can't be my favourite.😂
Good morning everyone. I came late as usual but then this topic gets as he be. Let me think well well before I reply
Happy weekend, my people.🥰
Honestly, it's difficult to pick between apps these days, considering most of them serve different purposes that are essential to our daily lives. But since we're asked to pick, I'll tell you my favourites(top 3).
1. Chrome: Chrome is like an apartment housing different rooms e.g hive frontend, Google workspace,IG & Facebook. So, you can tell I love it for its versatility because I can comfortably switch between tabs and open my other important apps.
2. Twitter: I love twitter because I'm into "Gbegorun"😂 and that's where all the tea is. It's a very educative platform for me too and it offers me the chance to tweets my most unhinged thoughts without worry.
3. Whatsapp: While Gen-Zs(💀) call WhatsApp boring, I think it's still the most lovely app to bond with my friends and family as well as share visual parts of my day with them.
@chefqueen, @daverick, @dwixer which ones are your top 3 social media apps and why?
