I wonder if GEMS would be a good option for you too, if you don't feel like your post has a pertinent community area. They seem to be going strong. I think OCD will still be any option for you as well. I feel like Acid is saying that if there is a pertinent community that it should go there rather than in a more random one. I'm guessing they will still support something that wouldn't fit elsewhere. The communities are a bit of a maze, but I hope you find homes for all your content. 💙

Hey, @minismallholding.
Well, that's very kind of you. Thank you. :)
I've been a member of GEMS and OCD both. Other than OCD has a trail and seems to have more of a community feel, while GEMS appears to be mainly one of the big three, I don't know if there's much of a difference in what they've accepted, and when they've actually upvoted, and then how much. It's all been kind of a mystery to me how that all goes down.
Ultimately, though, I think communities is the way to go, if crossposting can be simplified (or someone can help me understand how it actually works), and more people with HP can get involved (you have a few whales, some in betweeners, and a lot of minnows and plankton), then the whole system has a chance. Otherwise, we'll just end up loading up on one community or the other, and our content will all reflect that niche subject.
Again, I'm good with communities. But are we just supposed to go to the niche community that has no oomph at all, and therefore forego rewards? I mean, I want engagement and eyeballs on my post, but I'm on HIVE, rather than anywhere else, because I can earn rewards. I would think most of us have that as a priority among others.
Yes, that last paragraph! I think this is what OCD is trying to remedy, the niches being invisible. I think as hive grows we'll need more projects like OCD and curie, too. Either that or really work to get some clout in the niche community accounts.
