HiveWallet is a great app for using your liquid Hive as currency, but it doesnt show everything. Obviously Esteem is the best choice but they are rebranding to Ecensy and thats still not obvious for noobs. This is a good suggestion. I think apps need to put hive in their search tags, but onboarding from branded dapps is also happening in which case we need to provide support to reverse onboard existing users with accounts they may still not understand.

That's the problem.
No one knows what's what here.
It's so fragmented that all the projects here work against itself.
A newcomer needs simplicity and uniformity.

True but as a decentralized project there is no central place for everything. Anyone can develop and deploy their own project. Here is a few links to help out, feel free to share them and bookmark them for yourself.

Thanks for your effort.
The point wasn't against decentralized.
It's that it takes actions such as yours to spread that information.
That information needs to exist at the entry gates. Or better yet as someone suggested elsewhere, if a mobile app existed, as the greeting that informs user "this is what else is here".

Management of progress here is really bad.
You literally must know who is who..
Then follow those accounts.
But then... You got to follow them of Hive too. Because actual discussion on that progress happens in other places like discord.

This is the fragmentation I refer to.
It's like the big whales DON'T want this thing to become popular.
With reason too.
The rewards will tank hard.

"A newcomer needs simplicity and uniformity."

Maybe, but maybe it's enough to keep the Hive app simple and safe, and point them towards other apps that can execute more 'advanced' functions. We could use the basic app to onboard them to the social aspect of Hive and when they've learned enough they can upgrade to more advanced apps with advanced functionality.
