Only you and a few other people interpret my comments as a complaint about Hive.
What I am actually complaining about is the approach of most of the users of this platform.
Not about Hive.
Hive is a technically revolutionary platform, but it is socially ruined and doomed by most of its users by their wrong approach towards the platform.
If all I would do is complaining about Hive, then I would not have invested more than $1000 USD into the platform.
Well, you're right on that, but instead of just complain about that, you should focus on start to do things differently so people starts to engage with your content.
The more you engage with others, the more others engages with you.
You can't just sit there and wait for things to happen you need to make things happen.
On a socially properly working social network, you do not need to engage with others to receive real, genuine comments on your own posts.
Especially not with unique content. For example with amateur radio related posts, or with predatory birds related content.
They will even encourage you to post more often.
They will ask how are you, how the things are going, if you have help. They write useful/helpful tips, they always answer your questions.
Because people actually care about the content.
Unique content is naturally standing out on a socially properly working social network.
No one asks how much you engage with others. They are there actually for the content. They are actually interested in it.
And not in how much comments have you wrote under other people's posts today.
No one asks such a question on a socially properly working social network.
