You might want to give your great suggestions to the @openorchard team. They are all old Steemit Inc. Devs, with two of them having actually coded things with @dan. HIVE is the AOL of DPoS in my opinion.

Thanks, I'll reach out to them and see what they think about it. If they are all the main/original developers of steem/hive then there is a chance!
Not following the AOL reference?
Cool, as you appear to have some invaluable ideas.
Just as well as it was a immature cheeky jab at HIVE on my part. ✌️😎
The ideas are mostly born out of frustrations of projects not listening to their users and I try to keep myself independent to maintain a balanced PoV.
Haha, OK, I only used AOL chat about 18 years ago, didn't realise it was still a thing 😆
It's my feeling that people will say the same things about HIVE in the not so distant future.
Oh really? What makes you say that?
It was explained starting at point 4:12 on my CryptoTeaLeaves video if you'd care to listen.
I watched it all and I see your points that HIVE itself needs utility and starting to see things that Hive can be used for - for example, there was a WordPress plugin recently announced (I tried it out, someone bought one of my tracks via it on the website) which does have really big implications for being able to buy things via Hive through an online website. Fans can also be rewarded through upvoting their comments on Hive and they can either use that to build their own accounts up and ditch the old Netflix subscription model (nonameslefttouse mentions this facet countless times) although I think we're a long way from that coming to fruition.
Splinterlands is also another use case and think gaming is another untapped arena for Hive to go in to.
In other comments from this thread, it's ultimately all about the Dapps, who their target audience is, how they can make the apps fun and user friendly and creating a use case for HIVE. Hive as the blockchain is basically what should be marketed to Developers to build things on and the dapps are what should be used to market to end users - this is all my opinion of course, I've only been flirting with crypto for 2.5 years, you seem to have more experience.
