Yeah, I know. But I don't know why, but it's becoming a little hard for me to find posts. Maybe I'm not looking for them as I should.

Have you joined different communities?
You will have to search for people you like and engage with them. Also, try and join a few contests; it will put you on Spotlight.
Yes, I have joined some communities. But when I search the "Communities" tab on Ecency I always see the same people. I guess I don't really understand how this work yet lol.
When I want to search for new people, I use the explore option in peakd. It's very useful, maybe you should try that.
I mostly use Ecency because it's more comfortable to use an app on the phone than use the browser. Also, I don't understand how Peakd works yet 😅
Haha, I use peakd once in a while, I love ecency more.
Me too. I like Ecency more. I use Peakd to read when I found a link in discord and it's from Peakd, but nothing else.
You do not have to any of these on a properly working social network.
Especially with unique content, which naturally stands out a properly working social network, but not on the Hive blockchain nowadays.
Nowadays even the smallest Facebook groups (for example with a few hundred members) have more real content consumers than the Hive blockchain.
Because people there are there actually for the content.
Hive still has work to do in terms of getting people to consume content due to how challenging onboarding and newbies finding their ways around is.
Most people can't get past the stress of knowing how to use the platform, so they stop being active.
I think if the whole process can be made easier, more people will stay back, but things are not as hard as they used to be when I got here and I believe it will get better, until then we can only learn how to make the best use of what we have now.
Hive currently lacks only real content consumers. Not the content creators.
Most (approximately the 95% of the) people, who are active on this platform, are nowadays focusing on posting.
Because of this, most posts are ignored/overlooked.
Most people focus on their own posts, and on the rewards so much that this is how they ruin an otherwise technically revolutionary platform.
And this is mostly the result of the very bad marketing of Steemit (post, vote, earn).
I saw even people, who put stickers with this slogan for Hive too on various places.
Very bad.
This kind of marketing is attracting mostly very greedy and very selfish people.
Hive need a proper marketing to attract real content consumers.
Agree with you on this
