Pretty close to you with a drastic change to comments over posts as of the last few months. What good is content if no one is reading it and leaving valuable comments that enhance the post itself. Plus its a big motivator to write more and higher quality posts as comments are the most rewarding thing that all that time you spent writing it someone read it and found it helpful.
I also encourage this on my posts by leaving small upvotes on comments as a way to give back if it's of good quality and not just some spam comment lol.
What's awesome about Hive is we can reward what we feel the platform should be made of and to me that's high good quality posts that spark engagement and chatting back and forth with others. It's what I feel will keep people around longer and take Hive seriously.
