RE: Hive: One Of The Few Choices To Build Decentralized Social Media

in LeoFinance3 years ago

We are looking at providing an alternative to the present system. To achieve this, we need to provide solutions, not hype.

So much yes. I blog a lot while offering little to the ecosystem outside of some of my digital artistic endeavors. So I'm working on that personally. That said, I've been actively exploring other web3/dApp systems and I've found that...you really have to dig around to find dApp projects. This kind of surprised me honestly, I thought it would be easier to aggregate a list of decentralized apps, but maybe not since it is an entirely new space. As an example, I did a deep dive on Algorand (and I plan on looking at Cardano and Solana soon) and I never found a single place/site that acted as a unified list of Algorand dApps.

People must be able to find the applications that suit their needs

100%.

HIVE has all these front ends and awesome projects and games, but the average normie user I feel is still somewhat clueless as to what exactly is going on in the background. That's fine, the average user of the internet is also clueless as to what goes on in the internet background.

A part of me wonders how you could promote the idea of HIVE, showing all the cool dApps available, teaching a new user where to look for them and how to use their keys, without overwhelming them. It would be great if there was some sort of knowledge push for HIVE. I'm not entirely sure how to do it, how to teach the general public about decentralized back-ends when they don't even know what a back-end is to begin with.

Personally I think it is a one app at a time deal. Get them interested in what suits them and let them expand from there.

The mistake we make is we try to hit them with the back end stuff who, like you said, they dont care about or overwhelm them with all that is here. Instead, give them what is most appealing to them and add as time goes by.
