That's doing a fine job of highlighting the general lack of consumers on Hive, the general lack of interest in attracting dedicated consumers even though that role pays as well and not everyone is a content creator (consumers always outnumber creators by a huge margin), and it's showing what happens when what's left of the limited consumer base is then put in a position to branch off and consume utilizing an enormous selection of frontends rather than being corralled into one pool of potential viewers.
I've been pointing that out for years.
And yes the chart is also highlighting its own flaws. If it was just Hive with a bar beside it, that bar would be much longer, but Hive is set in a way that scatters those numbers.
I don't think the separation of Hive into different websites etc. affects it much. Most Hive users use multiple front ends, with only a few being larger than all the rest combined. With the chart is showing unique visitors, it's unlikely adding all those sites up together will alter it much at all due to the overlap.
Splinterlands.com has way more than the social media sites, but that's outside the domain of social media, and even if we include it, it's 1/3 of steemit.com's traffic. Nothing else even comes close to Splinterlands, so by any of the metrics available we're performing extremely poorly compared to the days of Steem, or even current zombie steemit.
I understand that. Unique visitors would be majority consumers. 1 video, 100k views.
Splinterlands is interesting. So on Facebook, if you wanted to play a game like poker for example, that would sit right inside Facebook, and those players would count towards unique visitors to Facebook. If you were able to open splinterlands or any game inside PeakD, that would bring up the numbers. It would also push the numbers of players up for each game due to convenience and accessibility.
One frontend that carries all current and future frontends, products, services, placing it all at the consumer's fingertips; the results would blow your f'n minds.
Build something, plug it in, tie it in with the entire consumer base, see results.
Current trend is: Everything is everywhere else. Consumer cannot find the products.
!
I don't think that anything else is important at all right now. Any action that further deludes the current user/consumer base should have been seen as an open act of terror against the ethos of the Chain, which it is in my opinion. As a consequence, I'm getting met with downvotes, discord banns, and bad naming on Twitter.
Maybe it's your twisted take on things that put you in positions that lead to you alienating people. Words like, "An open act of terror," along with that unsolicited victim card you just handed me; it's all such a turn off and doesn't do you any favors. Last time we talked I pointed out you have a habit of sensationalizing your talking points and by doing that you're making communication difficult. You're doing it again. You are 100% responsible for the situations you place yourself in.
In other words, I don't feel like taking the bait.
Have a good day, dude.
It's not that bad, words do have meanings and that's not a bad thing.
We're in a situation where not even Marky can freely transact his votes right now and everyone is kinda chill about it. How's that normal, he's a mega whale. My pushback is meaningless, the positions on which I push forward will make a difference.
Yes. Words have meanings.
Yet I just looked at his account history and he seems to be able to vote just fine.
No, his votes get followed by those other two whales and if he'd just vote on whatever he wants, they'd smack downvotes onto his upvotes. That's why he can only use his votes selectively, he's basically censored in his ability to transfer value via the Proof of Brain mining system.
We need to revamp into a system that's regulated on a community level and has no need for downvotes anymore. Smooth has put out ideas for that a couple of times. It will happen sooner or later, on this very chain or on its next fork.
Okay. Their issues have next to nothing to do with what I was talking about. Two people can't get along, better reinvent the wheel... ?
I don't have time for this, Manni.
It's not up to me to solve their problems. They are 100% responsible. Sitting around spinning my tires in a comment section with an alarmist, does nothing.
I can't follow and I hope you don't let people be a constraint on your time.
hope someday to rank also
