Man just check this out and it's just the first part. This goes to say one more thing, HIVE is a FREAKING complex system to understand! Btw, this is a crazy amount of work. It's not just the text but there are so many doodles in between. Must have taken days to complete this. And it's just the PART 1, lol.

Thanks for the kind words and linking to my guide, @finguru !

I'm a beginner here (22 days on Hive, even less owning crypto), and the guide was made because my beginner friend had hundreds of questions about Hive that I couldn't answer... so I 'DYOR' and this guide was the result.

That said I totally understand @jfang003 's point, and long-form content certainly isn't everyone's cup of tea.

Regardless, I'm still proud of the work I put in, and that many commenters and beginners have found it valuable already.

Perhaps I'll make a short version some day :)

You nailed it, buddy. No wonder you are on the trending page. We deserved. For a place like Hive which struggles a lot to help out its newbies, you have done a marvelous job. Especially with the doodles!

I think you have a website too. Can you mention its link there? I will bookmark it for future references.
Mentoring Newbies on Hive is a full-time job. And your guide will help them to learn about the ecosystem in a fun manner.

Perhaps I'll make a short version some day :)

That would be really cool. But I think with a complex ecosystem like "Hive" it's just impossible. Even your 2 part guide doesn't cover all the things but it's perfect for someone who is starting out with a clean slate.

Aw, feelin' the love. It's nice when people appreciate. :)

As a beginner, I felt the same way... 'struggling' to learn, it seems like the doodles are helping.

I do have a website, it's https://jryze.me , and there's lots of other interesting non-hive content there too, I'm grateful for the invitation to share it and I hope you enjoy.

Haha, yes, very good point sir. Simplifying a complex eco-system into short content does seem challenging. And I had to skip some things in the guide already so as not to overwhelm. 😀🙏

TLDR. I glanced at the word count and the length and was like I don't want to read it.

It's a newbie guide so you do not need to.

But it's great to send these two parts to your friends who just joined. Otherwise, they will eat all of your time asking questions. 😂

I guess I could toss it at people but I think most people prefer a guide that they can read in about 5 minutes.

You are right. But the sad reality of this space is that you cannot understand the whole of it in just a few minutes. The learning curve is huge.

I have made it, you have made it and we all are still learning. It doesn't seem to end.

That's true... there is a lot to learn and I appreciate the effort that people put into trying to make it easier on others

I am hoping it does come true in the future. A 5 minute guide plus a link to a FAQ would do wonders to helping people learn.

I wish the same. Hive definitely needs something like that !!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

LOL Save time. You already know how Hive works.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You do that too? I had to laugh cause I do the same and will usually read it if I'm really interested in the subject or if it's from an author I know.

This is after I began to notice less engagement and support formy usually monthly epic posts, so I cut back.

Yea I don't think people really want to read something over 30 minutes long. I think I prefer posts within 5-10 minutes max.

I really enjoyed that post. He did a very good job explaining things in an easy way to understand. His analogies worked well and the doodles added to me remaining interested.

One of, if not the best, tutorials I have seen on HIVE.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, the guy has hit on all the right points. I am sure many of the people who joined the platform recently could relate to the scenarios he has mentioned. It was a funny comic about the hive. Loved it.

We need more of such creative ways to educate people about this ecosystem.

I skipped it but now you made me want to read it LOL
