I wonder if Snaps will ever become the dominant use of Peakd over traditional posts. If not, will it ever be on par with them? Most of the time I find it easier to just browse and react to short-form content. It's still new and use still seems relatively low.

I believe #snaps will become more common for Hive users.
Currently, people are increasingly looking to consume short content, as the form of interaction is faster and therefore it is possible to do it much more often.
The reach is greater than with a long post.
Yeah, for someone who has really bad attention span, I can relate to this.
Yeah, there's definitely a bit of that in my reasoning too, lol.
I think it might in a few years. Maybe not with existing users, but I think new users might gravitate to snaps more.
That sounds totally reasonable to me!
As popular as Snaps become, I think long posts will never go away.
Oh, I totally agree. I wouldn't expect long form posts to go away. I just wonder if there will end up being more engagement because of short-form content becoming front and center.
Posts probably get more visibility because they work with any front-end. Snaps only work with PeakD, the front-end which usually caters more to power users.
This is a very good point about Hive overall. I was focused more on Peakd's use in particular, but I'm also an advocate for multiple front ends, so it kinda defeats my own purpose.
I am here more often. I'm a bit exhausted reading longer form. But I'll still catch up with my faves.
Eventually, I think most of us will do this.
