Just finished reading the entire post. I was absent from Hive for around 1+ year due to army service and now i am back i am trying to catch up on everything, see what i missed, what's new, how the communities i like are etc etc. (If i missed anything too important let me know :P)
On a more serious note though, i felt quite sad reading the post. I could tell @dlstudios had not that much time to spend/invest in that community but the guy tried... a lot and i believe he added quite the value! As one of the guys that made a lot of anime reviews before even Hive existed, backed in Steemit days, where you would literally see extremely limited anime content, for some weeks my anime posts were the only ones (excluding the "let me just upload a random anime photo from the web and wait for money :P" kind of thing) i kind feel sad. I believe that this niche has so many things to offer and it's quite easier to attract people that are familiar with cryptos at all but love anime/manga.
I had some more generic ideas for the future of the community and its next level but i think that a conversation at a very very later stage. For the time being due to work and stuff, my time is limited at 1-2 hours per day at best, some days i may not be active at all, some other days i may be active for 2-4 hours. Thus, i will try to continue posting some of my reviews here and upvoting/commenting on decent posts!
Also, since 2 months passed since the post, did anything change? any relevant update on the progress of the community or any upcoming plans?
Finally, how are you @adamada? I still remember some of your comments on my posts cause they reminded mine :P Long-ass meaningful comments that could create a whole conversation!
Struggling to get on Hive breaking from irl obligations but still here and out. Good to see you again, I really did wondered why you weren't posting anymore (not that I kept close tabs on your blogs). It's more along the lines of being familiar with some names on my feed or occasionally seeing familiar names posting on communities and then they suddenly don't appear anymore. I do recall you did talked about military service but damn, has 1 year already passed? you missed the exciting times on crypto and Hive bruh. you need a lot of catching up to do.
Good to see you active again, would like to get more activity on the community but like dlstudios, I'm barely getting by with my battles.
I totally get you! I will try for now to write an anime-related post 1-3 days per week and at the same time curate as much as i can during these days. If you also need help with anything relevant or you have any idea that you wanna talk about and need help let me know. I can't guarantee that i will be able to help due to my limited time these days, but i will try my best!
Well just start by posting on the community about anime related stuff, that's already a big help. It's not that no one shows interest in the subject, but if you were take into account how much they could earn posting another topic on another community for their time, it makes sense Anime Realm isn't the right one. I think it's for the best despite the lack of engagement, you wouldn't want to build on users that go where the money is because once the well dries up, they leave and that's just how much community spirit you really had from the start.
