#crossculture on Leo Threads (delegation) + Cross Culture News

in Cross Culture2 years ago (edited)

It looks like Cross Culture will be receiving a delegation from Leo for promoting the #culture tag at Leo threads.

If you don't know Leo threads already, it's a twitter-like project by Leofinance, opened to not only finance content, but to all topics. Threads are upvotable like Hive posts, but they are on the blockhain as comments, not as posts, so they don't show up on your feed unless you go to your Threads feed on Leo.

I've found that threads makes it easier to connect with people from other communities at hive and creates more bridges between different groups so I'm really excited to help them grow and see if we can grow Cross Culture through this.

At threads you are allowed to promote your posts, but in order to promote more casual discussion, I will be giving priority to threads that are not promotion. Think of it this way, you can get to know people through the discussions and later those people can become your followers and friends on Hive, you don't necessarily need to share every post you make.

0-10% reward - post promotion with some kind of comment

10-20% reward - decent threads without post promo

15%-50% reward - threads that encourage meaningful discussion.

Bonus for people who are leaving good comments on other #Culture threads!

Some ideas for #culture threads:

  • photo blogs showing us something from your daily life
  • Culture shock - surprises you have when hearing about other cultures (be polite)
  • Questions for people from other parts of the world
  • movies, film or music that you enjoyed from another culture and why
  • interesting facts about a language or tribe or religion or group with their own culture
  • interesting experiences you had while travelling (with or without pics)
  • language or language study related stuff

I hope that through this we can not only help the #culture tag grow but also the tag for various different countries with communities at hive. Feel free to use the country tag (ie #Nigeria #Spain #newyork #europe).

The people leaving the best threads consistently over time will receive some rewards every month too!

Also worth noting that @starstrings01 has restarted the monthly Cross Culture Contest, where you can win delegation from a 3000 HP pool. Check out the new contest and let us know how globalization has effected your home for better or for worse:

Lastly I’ve been busy editing and recording new episodes for a podcast that I host called Untangled Knots which often covers cross cultural topics and is the unofficial (or official?) podcast of this community. I’m putting it up on Spotify and Apple partly in an attempt to bring more eyes to Hive because 60-70% of the guests are Hive users.

We’ve talked a lot about Japan, Venezuela, Indonesia, America, Nigeria and Hong Kong so far as well as many different lifestyles and perspectives within those cultures. We will be talking about other places and lifestyles in the future.

Check it out on:

This place really opened up my world! I hope cross culture can do the same for everyone

First time hearing about this community but I love what I'm seeing! Threads is an awesome way to build following and interact with others here on the #hive blockchain. Welcome to threads!

I specially welcome the #Crossculture community to LeoThreads. Such amazing thing to discuss our cultural diversity and inclusions. I had a recent intra continental travel and the experience was mind-blowing and I'll be glad to share bits of it as threads.

Where did you go?

Leothreads is amazing, and I like the fact that the discussion isn't limited. Way to give traction to the cross-culture. The delegation is well deserved. I haven't really been on threads lately, so I've missed out on the conversations. Glad to see you're putting the podcasts on Spotify. If you still need to record more podcasts, I'm always available.

Threads = 🔥
Podcast Season 2 will introduce a few new faces and give a few more chances for friends to get to know each other. Would love to have you on with another one of my IRL friends but gotta figure out their schedules.

Of course, keep trying out new things till they eventually pan out well. Hive gets Interesting by the way and what a creative way to put the world out there. Hahaha. Be catching you on Twitter.

Awesome. I'll send the links to my more cultural behavioral posts.

I'm trying to refine my blog profile. Make it fun and interesting.

I need to check those posts out. Sound interesting. You are always fun and interesting and I love that you always experiment.

I'll be glad if you. I still have those video conversations in my planner too

Culture will be trending on LeoThreads 🔥

Welcome onboard dear community members, looking forward to exploring #culture ✌🏼

Thanks, welcome to start using it any time!

I am still trying to figure out how the thread thing works but good initiative anyway. I will try to contribute when I have the chance. Cheers!

It works just like Twitter, and has the twitter-like feel

From your Mobile Hive Keychain you can go to browser, and type alpha.leofinance.io, and it'll give you this:

Check by your botton left side of the screen, you'd see a login symbol.

Type in your username and login

Confirm the login

Then you can thread on!!!
Each thread will be like a comment and not a post.. so you can make 50 billion threads ina day.. if possible 😅

If you are leo it should be pretty intuitive, but we don't have our own thread feed yet, I think they are working on it, so its all about tags now. Welcome! Looking forward to what you share, god

Awesome!!!
I'll have to update my threads tags to include #culture 👌 Let's thread away!!!!

:-) I'll go check
