RE: Ask the Hive: What communities would you like to see kickstarted on Hive?

in Ask the Hive3 years ago

It is a very important point to attract CONSUMERS who only want to consume content, without the false illusion or motivated by receiving some money in return.

That is a problem, many come to this type of platform with the sole intention of making money, others with seeking more freedom of expression which they do not get on Facebook or YouTube.

I consume very specific content, such as topics that talk about life, thoughts, things like that, it hurts that in my original language (Spanish) there is not much of that, but in the end I am a consumer.

That is lacking here, but that motivation is in some cases backed by money.

Perhaps the success of the platform comes when people see SHARING as their first motivation and finally being rewarded if their work really deserves it.

Commitment and desire to do things well, I believe that together we can turn this around and that errors and failures have a solution.

Sort:  

The fact remains though, they do earn. They can play games, browse content, upvote, engage. All of this pays. Power consumers can earn enough for a new device to browse on if they try hard enough. And one cannot fail as a consumer here.

Have you ever watched a livestream on Youtube or elsewhere and notice all that consumer money pouring in? 30% of that goes to Youtube. Consumers love to spend money and here they actually get a return on that investment. This platform needs consumers and creators who actually understand the business model.

Every point of view is valid.

The point is that we must have other motivations, not just money.

Yes, of course, money is important to advance, and all that that entails.

But it should not be the only motivation.

True, it's not all about money, but the part that is involves money going out the door so in order to make that sustainable, there must be money coming in the door.

I understand perfectly gentleman.

What we are sure of is that we must find a way for everything to flow the right way or at least try to do something right.

There are many points, different topics to discuss, but it will depend on the community and the platform how everything develops.
