I think Hive.blog is a really good utility as it is open source and other projects like tribes has built on it. Even Peakd benefits from Hive.blog updates, for example the Twitter integration Huy did a while ago benefited all front ends as they all used it in some way. If we had a bigger team with devs dedicated to condenser, I think it could really be something.
That being said, I highly prefer Peakd.
