There have been discussions of a patreon like interface for Hive and a big reason reoccurring transfers came about.
While it is a good use case the actual usage will likely be tiny. Hive works for most people here due to inflation and it isn’t costing anyone anything. Look at platforms like DESO where all rewards come from your wallet and you can see them failing miserably.
We don’t have the user base where 1% or less can turn a patreon clone into a thriving dapp. There are certainly times it would be handy but we have plenty of tooling available to us right now to satisfy the demand we currently have.
I agree charity isn’t a good use case for the DHF but that’s pretty much how it is being used so far.
It is a good point, like many interesting daps that felt under usage despite having a good use case.
Sure the "tip me" or even direct transfers are possible, right? and the user can post updates of how much money still is left to achieve the goal.
Good to see that I am not the only one with these thoughts. We also need more awareness that even votes can affect "our business", so even curation shouldn't be performed in a random way as many do. But that is a topic for another post at another time.
There is a confusing typo in the first line.
fixed. auto correct...
