Hive's approach is much different than Leos. There are different incentives or goals for many of the influencers. Wish it wasn't that way but it is.
A big part of the focus is on the trending page. That stems from Dan's original believe about finding quality content. It obviously did not work out that way which leads to tinkering.
Leo is not really focused upon the trending page, that I can see. Instead, with the idea of comments and rewarding them, it is engagement and quality of posts. Ultimately, posts are rewarded and do form a trending page but I am not sure many care about it. They have their favorite authers, feeds, and other areas of interest that pulls them away.
For me, I spend almost all my time on the recent page.

I am doing the same. Wasn't a fan of the trending one since the good old times of Steem. There's quite a lot to explore on the current posts page.

I don't even look at the trending page on Leofinance either. Of course, the way the site is set up, we can see it but I glance at it and switch to the newer stuff.
It is where the action is as they say.

I have to admit the same. Some of the best content I found was from the recent ones. Quality control has been super well done on LEO compared to other places.
I never cared much about trending page on Steem. I rarely checked it. It's mainly about personal feeds for me. I follow the authors I like and it almost creates these mini-communities with frequent engagement around groups of authors.
