My friends and brother got me into hive, so it was easy to adjust. Beyond that, hive is just another social network with the extra benefit of being able to earn from your content. This is not saying you will earn, but on hive, you have a better chance of earning something without actually being an influencer. Compare that to Twitter, farcebook and YT where you need large following and engagement before you can earn a few bucks from your content.
The other aspect of Hive that is ignored is that we make genuine interactions here. Pepe that could patronise your business, give you ideas etc. Like useful connections and when the emphasis is placed on earning, that side gets lost.
So yeah, earning from content is awesome and possible but so is making it more social. How I see it, when we make it more social, we'll attract more people and that will have a positive effect on the price of the coin...which I think is a bigger win than earning from upvotes.
All great points. Community interaction and support is definitely the key to success, and also what will bring more and more users over here. Nobody wants to feel like they're shouting into the void. They want to be heard, or at the very least acknowledged. You only get that acknowledgement with community interaction.
I remember refusing to join hive because I thought I had to post your kind of content which isn't my thing. Well, I joined and found its a whole big world out here and I found people of like interests. I love it on hive man.
That's what it's all about @wolfofnostreet I think it's one of the biggest things holding back so many crypto incentivized projects too. People think they have to talk about crypto or that they're content won't find an audience.
All these crypto incentivized platforms need content that is as diverse as their competitors! We need guitar players, coders, weight lifters, hackers, gamers, and everything under the sun. This is how we grow HIVE, lbry.tv, sOmee, and all the other blockchain based social networks.
When users from other platforms find the content that they're looking for, they'll join us. They'll see Hive and other platforms as competitors to Facebook and YouTube. It's also another reason we need to support each other and grow together.
Totally agree with you
