More Steem accounts active, but less posting. I guess there's a lot of auto-voting going on. Some people buying lots of votes on their posts to get on trending. I am still dribbling out some posts there, but not much to vote on. Anything by good people can get 100% from me, but that is of decreasing value as I power down. I'll take what rewards I can get there.
I'd be curious how much of the disparity is due to something like Splinterlands transactions. I think there are absolutely a greater amount of "zombie" auto voting accounts on Steem too. Hive clearly has more organic activity at this point.
You can see on State of the Dapps that Splinterlands has a lot of users. Peakd and Hive.blog each have almost as many as Steemit.
Hive has to be a better experience than Steem for it to succeed. The higher token price will help, but we are starting from scratch with marketing and don't even have a company behind it, even though Steemit did bugger all. I think the growth could come from more underground marketing. We need some people with a decent following elsewhere to give it a try and bring some fans over. Musicians and other entertainers who can not get out to perform right now may be interested if we can get their attention.
Should we be double posting on steem you think?
It's a personal choice. If you have an audience who are not on Hive then you need to reach them on Steem. Most people I know have moved across. In any case I have got on the Steemit naughty list so my posts won't make anything. Some were 'milking' rewards there, but now the main Steem auto-voting service has shut down they make less. There's also the factor of people powering down so their votes are smaller.
You may have seen the latest news. Steemit stealing rewards makes Steem very unappealing to most of us.
Yes I've been reading up and catching up on what I missed, really shitty behavior on that side of the crypto pond.
Me too.
