Yep, I've been saying this for a while now. It's like we have a completely different steemit.com and steempeak.com now.
From some reactions I saw yesterday, looks like enough people waited to see the communities on the main sites before learning more about them.
Yeah man, it was all really confusing...And calling them hive-8389373 didn't help either.
But I look at that list on the left now...And THIS is great....Like topics I'm interested in and things I wanna dive into more on my journey here on Steem...
Such a win!
Yes it looks much better this way! They are still called "hive-" internally by the way. It's just a matter of how the interface shows them, that's the magic. :)
If you go to an interface which doesn't support communities yet, you'll still see them as "hive-".
You have their ear (the developers of this stuff) please remind them that the more complicated this stuff is, the less 'normal' people will adopt it LOL
So true Jongo. But I think they will adopt it once they get more involved with Steem over time. Feed them the easy stuff starting out and then give them small portions as time goes by. Kind of a gradual "osmosis" type thing if you will
Agreed...The most important thing is that people actually use this stuff. Slow and steady!
I hope they won't get carried away. Ease of use is important for more adoption.
