RE: Why is Hive not growing?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I totally agree with both of your points. I also see them as major issues to make hive evolve. The onboarding would require easy account creation, basic education of how hive works and how to behave. Then we would need the hive police, not to downvote people but to educate them and give them tips how to do things better and how to correct their mistakes. Everybody who makes a mistake can learn and they will feel good when they are helped on the way.

Exactly on all points, and both of those issues are challenges in their own right. I've wanted to create some sort of comprehesive educational framework, like a Hive School, to get newcomers off to a good start. The trouble is that with the seemingly increasing abusive downvotes, many such newcomers, and even people that are actively educating and onboarding people and businesses in their local communities, become very disheartened and discouraged, and I don't blame them one bit. By the way, what I consider abusive downvotes are when people's posts are downvoted, or they're even added to downvote trails, with zero communication. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
This is indeed a motivation killer for people who would like to build something for onboarding and retention....
Precisely, and it frustrates and bothers me so much, because it's directly harming the chain and slowing growth. I think that a new implementation of the downvote feature is needed, one where giving a reason for the downvote is required, along some sort of community oversight that has the ability to nullify obviously abusive votes. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
