It makes me happy that I can inspire thoughtful people to consider meaningful things. It is my hope that this benefits society, that people gain understanding of what is important and better value one another, strengthening society by strengthening the bonds of human affection.
Strengthening bonds through how we interact and support each other without "needing" anything is very important.
If we disagree passionately while still sharing some commonality, we will be stronger than those who all speak in the same voice.
Debates drive innovation and inspire new ideas that would never happen if we were all the same.
Our commonality is our passion for HIVE. And it must be what binds us together while we express our differences. Our differences provide value.
In terms of communities, I think I just need to make one and see how it goes so then I can get better at understanding the type of questions I need to ask to get people excited about communities.
I will look at all the communities that exist and try to make something "new" that may not be interesting but will be interesting to me. This way I have an incentive. I will be a part of the process. I need to get my hands dirty first before I can even dream of becoming a master. How far will I take it? I don't know. But I have a precedent of never giving and not stopping even when people tell me to. When someone tells me to stop, when someone tells me it is impossible, that is what drives me. This is where the money is. The impossible. The easy doesn't pay well. Just enough to get by. I hope to channel this when I explore communities more.
And if I come up with anything you will be that inspiration and you can come here and say see! And I will say yes, @value-customer and I crushed it. (In a good way)
Will this happen? Who knows. But it is good to dream. It is good to seek out the impossible because even if you fail, even if you are an absolute failure, if you seek out the impossible like a savage, you will never regret it. You will never look back and say I didn't try. You will look back and say, dam, it wasn't what I expected, but this thing I did is worth something and I am glad I did it.
Let's see what happens 😊
I have rarely seen such passion and wisdom expressed here, and it is impossible to express fully in words how deeply that impresses me, even gives me hope for Hive that has been languishing lately. I have a feeling you are not a dreamer, but a doer. I look forward to seeing what you dream up, because I expect you will make it happen.
Communities are regular accounts with the special feature of printing to it's own feed.
Anybody can make a post to the public feed of these accounts.
They were designed to allow exclusion of disruptors.
More users solves most of our problems.
I think new users is always good! I am not sure I think it solves most things. I honestly don't even think about what new users solve too much.
I honestly just want as many new users as possible and getting them primarily through social interaction.
Still thinking through the best ways to do this. I am guessing different people will have different methods that work best for them.
