RE: Is Hive Blog the new platform to be on?

in #hive4 years ago

Is Hive the new place where all the old guys migrated to?
Yes. Hive was launched and supported by a distributed team that were the old witnesses and community developers on Steem. All the SteemitInc Developers also resigned soon after the Tron acquisition. So very little left there of what you would have seen in 2016-2019.

What is the difference between Hive and Peakd?
Peakd is just a front end built and operated by a different team than the community developers contributing to hive.blog. I personally find peakd better to use, but it's a preference thing.

Are there more platforms like Hive and Peakd?
@ecency is probably the closest alternative. My team have also built a WordPress plugin @exxp (formerly @steempress) that allow any WordPress blog/website to integrate Hive as a way to share their posts here and also allow visitors to log in with a Hive account to comment and upvote on the blog page.

What is the suggested platform where most of the old Steemit users are writing
I guess there's an even split between peakd and hive.blog. But remember that anything you post on one will also appear on the other. As they're all utilizing what's stored on the Hive blockchain.

How does communities work and which communities are the best to join?
Communities are just like sub reddits. I suggest you browese https://peakd.com/communities and see if any of the popular communities relate to your interests.

Oh, and welcome back :)

Hi @fredrikaa, Thanks for the great response and detailed feedback. You have saved me a lot of research time. I will most definitely make more time to engage with the various platform and community members going forward.

Really great to learn about @ecency I will check it out this evening.

@fredrikaa, I have a question which might sound stupid, but you gave me excellent answers yesterday so I thought you might be able to assist.

I am busy powering down my steem to move to Hive for PowerUp on this side. It is not much but it is a start for building my HP again.

My question is:
I want to move some Hive from Bittrex to my Hive wallet.
I will obviously use my Account name : JacoR as the Recipient Wallet address.
The question is what Memo do I use?

No Worries, all sorted. No memo needed :)
