Yes, there is an issue of functional censorship.
Because Hive for some reason still only has peakd.com, ecency.com and leofinance.io to choose from.

Poor hive.blog always left out 😢😔
Fucking LOL.
I'm not even going to ask where the money for that hunk of shit comes from.
Rude! Condenser is the OG you need to put some respect on it 😅🙃
If someone wants to start Hive.Blog Incorporated that takes control and monetises the domain, then go for it!
Let's not forget about hive.blog. I'm thinking of creating another one almost for a year. I might, maybe
If you do, please treat it like a business.
Monetise the content.
Financially incentivise content that makes money to be published to the blockchain so you can display it your way.
The concept shouldn't be rocket science, but it is!!
I'm not good at getting sarcasm, but this feels like one. It is sarcasm, right? 😅
I want a simple alternative with no censorship and no monetary incentivization. It will be just a Hive interface, not the next gamechanger initiative 😛
I just read your other thread; well it doesn't look like a sarcasm. I disagree, I'm here to talk, not earn money. When money is involved in something, it changes its form. Games, social media, friendships; this is true for everything.
I don't want to build the next circlejerk. The only real cost in developing the new interface is the dev cost. Hosting cost for them is not high if you are not dumb enough to buy from first cloud provider you see like digitalocean.
I think blockchain based communities gets this wrong sometimes. Not everything should financially incetivized. Can there be someone doing that? Ofc there can; but that doesn't mean I have to play by that. It is unnecessarily complex.
I always stated I dislike some community posts even when I was working for Leo. It was also the main reason why I left; this is just like a big echo chamber. As a content value, random discord server with a hundred users has better content.
For those reasons, I think we should be building infrastracture without financial expectations. If that was something people needed, then people will notice and use it. If they use it, they will invest in it.
Atleast this is how I see it, not the other way around.
As long as you're funding it and not the DHF, fantastic.
I might go that route, but I wouldn't value it more than $50/d, and that would be the EXTREME case. The issue with non-tech people is they tend to overcomplicate stuff. On the other hand, this is my profession.
But realistically speaking, $10/d is enough for maintaining something like that. Server costs plus 5 hours of development time per month. It doesn't need leaderboard or the next hype. It is just what it is. And maintaining that is easy
But you can see the issue of front-ends getting money from the DHF, but not actually monetising the content, right?
How its not sustainable?
