I'm very new to Hive and have spent just a little bit of time posting on various platforms, commenting, reading communities, etc... All very casually. But the more I read and see how things work around here, the more excited I get to start making content.
I come from mainstream social media where for the past few years my focus was on clickbait and marketing of my offline business. Content was superficial. It was neither useful for the viewer, nor gratifying to create. It was all about the clicks and analytics. I HATE making that kind of shallow, short form content.
So, I'm very happy to see that not only is more well thought out and longer form content welcome here, but it's expected. I love that. As a Hive noob, it feels like I've found the space I've been looking for for a very long time. And your posts have been some of the most useful I've found as I find my way around here. I appreciate that.
