I get your points re author vs sharer - one topic that could of course be discussed - but what I do not like is people telling established users such as @acidyo (who is not perfect for sure) that did and do a lot for the platform - what al is wrong - I realize you have not a lot Hive staked and what your earn seems to go immediately to Binance. Fair enough - no law against this but I would appreciate folks here to power up their stake to support Hive before they raise certain issues.
Just my thoughts.
I got a bit hasty after reading some of his comments to the others here. in general I think we should be a lot more rewarding to attempts trying to bring in traffic to our front ends, especially those that actually do something. Sure it may not be amazing but 1k views here, 2k here, etc is something other platforms would pay thousands for. Even I as one of the more read authors on hive due to genuine connections being here every day for 9 years don't really get more than 50-150 views on peakd on the important posts.
if it was up to me we'd have 10-20% of the reward pool go only to sharers, that's kind of why I wanna get a proposal going for posh because even with ocdb we don't have enough voting power to support posh, communities, other curation -and- onboarding and diverse other things we do with it due to price being low and everyone just too focused chasing random shittoken apr's or selfvoting through vote selling schemes.
Yeah I relly think over 1k views from outside is fantastic - when I check (and I am doing this not long) some of my shares (and from the other shares) are usually the most viewed posts on Hive that says a lot - it does not mean we automatically bring these viewers on board. Maybe a strategy for that could be discussed without advertising too heavily on Reddit :-).
If you need support for a proposal happy to help as I think this is a key amrekting thing to make us known outside (in a relaxed way) - also see you have struggles to cover all these new guys here wirh OCD, Posh only.
To me one of the marketing things ever happenend here.
I respect that.
Sincerely, I do.
But there are more ways than one to support Hive. I do my part when I get the time, certainly will do more even if I don't get in people's face talking about it.
@acidyo may not remember why he's even following me in the first place but it's because of this link below:
A promotion of POSH in a personal media I started at the time
I also ran paid ads at the time to try to bring eyes to it, the experiment didn't result in a lot of click throughs though, here's the stats on views at the time.
Posh isn't the only hive project I've tried to promote, did a lot with Inleo from general guides to occasionally including it in general reports.
Also had pop-up ads for Inleo on icoverage that got clicks but due to hive apps generally not being optimized to turn visitors to users, there wasn't any sign ups. I believe I talked about it on threads at some point.
So @uwelang I respect your opinion, but I've certainly made efforts that am not exactly giving up yet.
Icoverage is still active for a reason(the idea was to have a standard media that covers hive developmens), but without great projects here to talk about and the actual platforms being well optimized to convert visitors to users, most promotion efforts will be wasted.
I don't know why everyone seems to think am against what Acid is doing with RedditPosh, that's no way what I've been discussing here.
