One of the problems of Hive is that, as the majority of the users are after votes (and rewards), people are WAY more incentivized to create posts then to read other people's posts and comment on them, as posts usually have way higher chances of receiving votes (and higher value votes).
The tribe 1UP.Zone, created by @flauwy, had a great initiative to "fix" this: they have a curator account that ONLY votes high quality comments. Because of that, there has been a lot of interaction and engagement on the posts, and I'm truly enjoying it: everytime I post something interesting, I receive lots of actually useful comments (not the classic "oh nice post" or "hey thx for sharing this"); in the same sense, when I read some good post, I'm also incentivized to write longer comments and put more effort on them.
Considering that you're also wanting to build something similar, I would suggest you to talk with Flauwy, as he can share insights of what's working and what's not working on their comment curating system.
I noticed this. But as a community interaction is very important, so well will find a way to do better.
Alright, thank you very Much. I will reach out to him and am very sure there other POB members here who will be very happy to support.
You're 100% correct. As content creators, it's way more important and healthy to receive one engaging comment than one vote; votes aren't personal, they're just a number.
