Assuming we are keeping the (poorly chosen) name 'Hive' for now - does it make sense to call individual Hive Communities - 'Hives'?

I think 'Colonies' would be better
Well, that makes more sense from the perspective of biological taxonomy, but it's a bit of a mouthful and kind of lacking warmth perhaps 😅
it's no more a mouthful than community
Whatever way you go with it there will be:
'sub-reddits' are what hive communities are originally based on. i didn't really understand 'sub-reddit' when i first joined reddit - because it doesn't really describe what the thing is.. unless you start defining reddit as a noun
(common noun) and not (proper noun)
I still dont get sub reddits but then I dont spend any time there.
But yeah names can be confusing and misleading. The Hive name wasnt really thought out and certainly nobody who was involved did a web search. A couple clicks would have revealed a great deal.
There were people doing the due dilligence, like myself. I didn't actually find that blockchain company - they must have had poor SEO at the time - but it was abundantly clear that Hive was a bad choice from an SEO pov. I was shouted down.
There is the apache app Hive. They tend to dominate the rankings. All the major tech sites have something about it.
I don't even look any more as there are always going to be other sites that dominate the keyword - at least while Hive isn't audited and improved across the board from an SEO standpoint. Even then it's unlikely to rank for 'Hive' itself
I drilled down one day. Hive. io or something ranked like 42nd. It was way down there, far enough that nobody (other than me) will ever see it.
nahhhh it makes me think of hives, like the skin condition lol
ah, i don't think i've ever had that - but fair point i guess. lol
me neither but I've heard it'd awful and it was the first thing that came to mind haha
I have seen some communities that used Hive in their names. Just the base name though.
And let's call everyone who disagrees a big ol' stinger. 😜
really thats what communities are called i didnt know that uwu
