Better onboarding definitely needed and I think in the works.
Hive.blog, imo is a placeholder until other front ends get going (peakd.com already is). But yes I think there are some plans for onboarding specifically but this will be a community project in every sense of the word.
So I think the current group is just getting things started, then it will be turned over to the community and everyone can/will be involved.
We as a community will have to self organize to solve these issues, which I actually think is really exciting 🙏
a community marketing dept would be cool, so we can better organize on social media, for cooperation....
yeah, i like not having Steemit in the way any more! that sucked so hard.
