I can't even state how much I massively agree on how important upvotes on good comments are for new players. I'm sure, like everyone, the first few months posting on this platform my posts were rarely upvoted, I just wasn't really followed... but I got so many decent and generous upvotes on comments I put good effort into, and it really did keep me around. It's not just a money thing... proper percentage voting was unlocked at 500SP and so there really is a drive to get out there to comment and make friends.

Hive really is super exciting at the moment, it feels like every week there's something brand new to be pumped about.
