A balance of both would be nice I think, one feeds off the other. Let's hope my small efforts have an effect over time although it would be nice to see each and every user put aside their own personal gains for a second and help others; I think we would have a better blockchain if that was to occur.

I very much concur with that view and I think I failed to word my thoughts properly. I'm not putting off quality content (I actually like to believe I'm making them myself haha) but they aren't always essential for a successful social media. Take Instagram and Facebook, for example, they feed off envy, jealousy, greed, and depression — but spontaneous interaction is there!
If we can get both quality content and interaction at the same time — that's marvellous and I hope hive can take that route in the long run.

Let's hope we all start pulling in the same direction as a community and assisting the new people who come on board by setting a good example and offering a leg up when they need. I'm not a fan of any of the social medias and have none of them, so hive is it for me. I hope the best for it, as do many others.
