The fact I had to jump through hoops to purchase Hive so I could get HP to respond to the comment pisses me off about this blogging shit here already. In no world does that even make sense!
Generally you shouldn't need this. Most account creation services give a little delegation of HP with the new account, and otherwise you can always ask on the Hive Telegram group or the Hive Discord servers, there's always someone willing to help a newbie get started.
Signing up to use a blog platform shouldn't be so stupidly difficult.
If developing an app or website on this blockchain requires this sort of difficulty for users there is no way in hell we are going to create anything here.
Sorry, but I am so pissed off from this experience as a user, I would be hesitant to put anymore investment of time or resources into Hive, especially money and development.
Simply mind numbing!
I agree, on boarding is perhaps our largest pain point that needs to improve.
