However, the demand for decentralized social media is still very low.
I disagree with this. I think the recent actions of Twitter and Facebook have elevated it. The problem is that we still do not have the applications to satisfy the need. This is going to change with the release of projectblank in a few weeks.
After that, we will see how quickly things move. I believe they are going to take off almost immediately.

also @cryptospa you need to take into account 2 more things. 1) the majority of people are unaware of Hive's existence not because they don't care but because it's hard to find it, thus marketing is needed as well. 2) There is always the fear of the unknown.
I will you an example. It took me over 50-70 articles of "social media, find ways to earn money online, blogging platforms" to find one article for Hive (Steemit back then). It also took me 2-3 months to join out of fear that this maybe be a scam.
The same applies to many people even now!!

In the end, people will be using Hive and not know it nor care. We will see this in a few weeks. They will be on Projectblank, which is on Hive and they wont know. They will log in using twitter or facebook and start operating. Only over time might they start to learn about what else is offered and even then they might just learn apps names like Leofinance.
