Well, to be honest, I don't understand many videos that are made in English, but from what I could understand and reading people's comments, I saw people talking about affiliates and ADS, so I'm not sure if that's what was said, but, regarding onboarding, as someone who has already invited about 10 people and none of them stayed, what I can say is that the "earn money/participate" format by posting, in the blog style, scares people too much.
They don't see themselves writing 400 or 500 words, which is considered a "quality post" to get amounts that are often less than $1.
So I think we need to reinforce the use of simpler frontends that are more similar to web2, such as Liketu and Inleo's threads, to then present the blogs. Even though I'm an advocate of quality posts, with each passing day I see that Hive will have to abandon this idea of "500-word posts" if it wants to attract and retain new users.
I totally agree with your point. People are not natural bloggers and it took me a lot of time to actually start posting stuff.
On Hive, we have also many other ways to earn like using short form messaging, commenting or simply investing. We actually want to promote the Liotes ecosystem and all the ways you can earn with it in the first place. So that we would attract a much broader audience.
The success of Splinterlands was that you could earn money playing a game. The financial incentive is what works best to attract people in the crypto sphere. Liotes offers many ways to earn and that's what we would want to promote.
