I think there are many reasons and to all of us different ones will matter the most.
To me, it's the linear curation curve, the engagement of both the authors and readers, and most importantly the constant progress made on the platform. I mean honestly, I've been using Hive since early spring and it feels like nothing has changed at all ever since.

In fairness, at least from the development side, there was a lot of back end and base coding that had to take place. Thus, attention in that area obviously came in as a priority.
But your overall point is right. The problem is most of the communities fall into the same category. Nothing changed on them in near two years.

Did not mean to be disrespectful here, I know there have been a lot of changes behind the scenes which are not apparent to the average user. That said, it's a topic that's probably more about how it feels to people than anything else.
On Leofinance it seems like I wake up to something new and amazing almost every other day, on Hive it feels like I'll be using the same interface with the same functionality for years to come.

Without a doubt, the progress being seen on Leofinance is light years ahead of most other things tied to hive.
As for the behind the scenes, with it comes to Hive that is why I think that it is up to the tribes and communities to provide that forward progress. Any tribe can follow, at least to a degree, the example of Leo. Certainly, there are going to be parameters based upon the individual community.
Nevertheless, out of 10,000 account active, a few couldnt put together communities to duplicate Leo?
