Well, that's not actually a valid comparison. First, you need to have an account here. Second, you have to have enough HP to get something for you upvote. I guess the dust threshold is around 100 HP currently, that is $35 of investment to be able to get something out of it (depending on the current voting power, of course). And there's one more thing to mention - anybody can see what you voted for (while on YT, only the Big Brother knows). Many people do mind that lack of privacy.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Viewer supports creator's Patreon. $12/month. 10 creators, $120/month. Think about those numbers, watch how fast the well dries up. Put that same supporter and those numbers in a position holding HP and watch how affordable it becomes.
I was careful with my wording. Viewing then voting and deciding how much it's worth. Could put in $35 or $3500 (but the money is not spent, it's still yours.) And on youtube the viewers paying often stand out somehow from the crowd.
And the paying viewer has SPENT their money. So again. On Hive. "Good deal."
And if you bought Youtube Premium, you pay to be a viewer or viewing becomes a COST. So again. Hive. Good deal. ;)
