Actually, x does pay users for content through their monetization program (if you qualify), see ~~~ embed:1773771113824387497 . and as you know for regular users x is free. on top of that, x allows you to have subscription based readers on top of the monetization (see image below). twitter metadata:aW1VckIwMGdpZW1hbnx8aHR0cHM6Ly90d2l0dGVyLmNvbS9pbVVyQjAwZ2llbWFuL3N0YXR1cy8xNzczNzcxMTEzODI0Mzg3NDk3ICAuIGFuZCBhcyB5b3Uga25vdyBmb3IgcmVndWxhciB1c2VycyB4IGlzIGZyZWUuIG9uIHRvcCBvZiB0aGF0LCB4IGFsbG93cyB5b3UgdG8gaGF2ZSBzdWJzY3JpcHRpb24gYmFzZWQgcmVhZGVycyBvbiB0b3Agb2YgdGhlIG1vbmV0aXphdGlvbiAoc2VlIGltYWdlIGJlbG93KS58 ~~~
Not only that, you'll have a greater reach, and be recognized by some of the top influences in the world, or in your local community....or you could sit hear on hive listening to the crickets chirp and dealing with the happy merchant micromanaging what you are permitted to say, liberally speaking, to control virtual pennies that you never cared about to begin with.
Now either hivewatchers is intentionally lying to you, or they are seriously out of date in understanding hive's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats as they suck from the teats of the dao-as they intimidate and scare off users and investors alike.
They have no incentive to add value to hive, nor to understand the market, nor to understand hive's customers, nor to understand basic human philosophy, nor to understand user psychology; they are being paid to destroy the value of hive as a network. Truth be told, They should be on their hands and knees thanking you for finding hive a relevant place to post your content, begging you for more. But, instead they gave you a great big f___ you and f___ off as a welcome; What a welcoming friendly community for new users, and influencers hoping to expand their sphere of influence (as is common) to new platforms who possibly could have marketed hive for free and sent users here.
Also, hivewatchers does not speak for hive, to the extent they claim they do represents the hostile nature of the centralization of hive. They are a single dao funded bully who should have been forced into retirement years ago. A whale with enough weight and reputation could easily zero their reputation-or more easily end their dao funding.
On edit:
As proof, hivewatchers has commenced an attack on my hive reputation for rightfully criticizing them and how out of touch they are. They aren't able to respond to criticism with reasons to how I could possibly be wrong. In the absence of a proper response, given the onchain evidence of their attack of a user who since 2017 in good standing and who aided in the war against justin sun, they concede that my criticism if them is correct and they have nothing in which to defend their conduct, ahem misconduct, with. Furthermore, they did everything I say they do to users thus proving my point. They aren't very bright, and should have never have been placed in a position of authority if they cannot handle a little honest criticism. They let too much power get into their heads. @blocktrades , please remove your support for the hivewatchers proposal and punish them for their hubris.
Sadly true.
He's pushing VP too.
Thanks!
We are aware that X in fact pays its premium users, their argument seems like an attempt to say that on X you have to pay them first to qualify to earn, which isn't a good argument generally.
What's funny is that we don't even care about the rewards, we didn't care about it on X, why would we care about it here?
If we do get the rewards, it's definitely a plus, but if not, really makes no significant difference.
But you simply cannot ask that we decline rewards or publish exclusively on Hive, that should be our choice, we are a marketing agency and we quite frankly know what platform to prioritize for what content.
We don't care about ad revenue on X or inflation rewards on Hive, what we care about is reaching and working with projects.
We do have people on our team who are already conversant with how Hive works, so understand that, all of this is just giving us a huge laugh rather than a headache.
They are meant to ask questions first before passing judgment.
Our collective sentiment is that this is very bad first impression for any new user.
But fortunately, not all of us is new to this.
They need to do better, that's all we can say.
