I play with some of that. I created a Diaspora account ages ago, but didn't use it much. Since Twtr went downhill I have used Mastodon more. A lot of people there are very anti-crypto. I know some are not into earning online, but that is a luxury position as others are desperate to earn. I know of some efforts to integrate Hive into that ecosystem. It will be interesting to see how that is taken.

Yeah, I think lots and lots of people are very anti-crypto now, seeing it all as scams and ponzis... so it feels like we have an even tougher job ahead of us than we did a few years ago.
I've been using Threads a fair bit, and apparently they're working on joining the Fediverse too, but I don't really understand how that's going to work since Meta is, ah, evil(ish).
Hive is not perfect, but it has some advantages over some other coins, including not using much energy and lack of fees. Scams can happen on any platform, including conventional finance such as shares.
I did not even look at FB/Meta Threads. I don't know any friends who say they use it and I distrust the company.
Yeah, that's totally fair enough... you shouldn't trust it.
The only reason I'm on it is to try and convince non-blockchain people to try my own project. It is a trillion times less toxic than Twitter, but I have no idea what Meta is doing with all that data they're collecting.
