First, I've been thinking of working on some projects here on Hive, but feel constrained as I am not so popular and may not get my voice heard properly. So, I would like to ask you:

Popularity is great, but if you have an amazing idea, it will get popular on it's own. We all started from nowhere here.

What will it take for you to buy into a Hive-based project proposal (like what kind of projects do you see potential in, e.g., niche and more)? What would be a good pitch to you?

Onboarding in my opinion is the biggest thing, anything that brings in more users.

Do you do autovotes? If yes, what will it take to earn that secure spot in your heart to take out the time to add someone to earn a portion of your HP? What criteria/qualities do you look out for in a user? If no, what are your reasons, and do you consider autovoting unethical?

I am not against auto votes, I always curated people I thought created good content and added value. As for what it takes to get my vote, I never really go into that, there is nothing anyone can do to influance how I vote. For the last year though I have had angry whales countering my upvotes because I downvoted their votes on abuse and they threw a fit. So I don't have the luxury anymore to choose what I vote on.

Thirdly, I believe that at some point, we grow so much that we need the services of others. I am enthusiastic about supporting some projects and users here, as I believe that would give me more relevance and useful exposure. So, do you already run a team? If yes, what remote spots could someone reach out to, and what qualities do you look out for? If you are a lone operator, why do you think it's better to work alone than with a team?

I am a lone operator. Trust is a big factor for me, trust in the integrity, but also performance. Many people come on strong, but then quickly move on to other things abandoning their responsibilities.
