Nothing wrong with sharing your own stuff outside, especially if you have eyes out there to see it, and then maybe those people will share it.

Sharing is far more effective when people share the work of others though. Potential market grows with each share.

Of course these days the attention span is short combined with a metric shit-ton of content to scroll through. That much choice combined with so little time spent means a lot falls through the cracks.

I think the easiest way for something like an artist to go viral these days is just to say something stupid designed to piss off the political crowd, and get "cancelled". Or combine some art with telling them what they want to hear, could work... chuckle

We actually do incentivize sharing of others posts more in some ways, for instance if the poshtoken comment has your twitter share in it and you upvote it yourself, those hive rewards will go to the hive.fund, so you're better off hoping others will upvote it to reward you for your share, something which the original authors often may do to incentivize more sharing of their posts.

You can also consider the upvote on the poshtoken comments as a small "reward pool", say if I give the comment on this post now a big vote, others could notice it and be like "hey if I share this on Twitter I can participate in getting some of those rewards".

Another cool thing is that you can also share old posts past payout as long as you haven't already shared it once before.

Isn't it cool how my ramblings about nothing can trigger so many moments of clarity.

Maybe I should be on Twitter...

For me my position (before POSH efforts especially) was if a consumer was wise enough to stake HIVE in order to qualify for benefits, they earn by sharing if they also vote then receive curation(consumer) reward. The 'share to twitter' button, when pressed, would have functioned the same way as the vote button plus sharing to twitter.

A frontend could have that up and running in a matter of days. Then there's yet another reason to stake and hold HIVE. These second layer options work fine as well. Fun watching you folks find creative ways to achieve these goals.

I also like how the tweets show up in the comment feed (hated that at first but now I can see important stats in real time which is a good thing) but I will remind everyone how much of a disaster that'll be if a post actually does go viral. That comment would be a neverending scroll. I suggest planning for that. Reach a certain amount and the tweet post could shrink in size, for instance. So you'd have thousands of smaller thumbnails, maybe. I'm just thinking out of my ass right now.

Still. Keep it up. Running a tight ship. Good to see.

Yeah, I guess that'd be a good problem to run into in the future, maybe it would just stop embedding tweets after a certain amount and only list all the hive usernames instead.

Can you believe that the initial idea for POSH was to help Steemit when the bear market hit and they set up their adrevenue on the website to receive more ad traffic? What a wonderful segway into instead helping Hive get a lot more traffic, but goes to say that once/if other platforms do implement non-intrusive opt in ads they may share with authors and consumers, that posh could have a nice role in that as well.

Names would look ugly. Add columns, shrink them down, five wide would shorten the scroll distance a lot. Clicking the smaller version would enlarge it, much like how images can be interacted with, I suppose. That's getting fancy.

Kind of funny how they added in ads, all while at the same time chasing consumers away with bidbotted madness. Dude I still cringe...

Anything that is rewarding consumers here, and driving more potential consumers eyes here, I'm 100% in support of.

Then when they arrive, if that message somehow mentioned being rewarded for consumption habits rather than telling them to spend money, the content shared externally viewed by outsiders would then have a far greater chance of attracting a new member.

That's how you align the planets...

That's actually a great point, that message doesn't really say the whole truth about our ecosystem. cc @jarvie, @asgarth

Could that be edited possibly?

It's way off. Like I've said a million times, if a consumer does decide to support content, they do that transferring money from their bank account to their HIVE account, and can then support consistently WITHOUT 'spending' money. They actually earn to support it. Consumers staking HIVE creates consistent demand for the token, detached from crypto market trends, and contributes to furthering decentralization efforts. No more evil bear, in a perfect world...

The collaborative efforts of Justclickindiva and DeannDMatthews might get some attention - the art and stories focus on aliens, which is always popular :) ...
