About our guest, Steevc 🌟

Alright friends…steevc@steevc joins us this week. He has been on chain since August 2016. He is a connector, and pretty much everything he posts is a way of pointing at somebody else.

There's the Steem days. He showed up as the guitarist offering to buy guitar picks for Steem Dollars and getting people to post their whole guitar collections. When the fork came he moved over the same day and changed his old profile to say he had gone to Hive, see you there.

There's the lists. Follow Friday, every week, for years, with the news, the shout outs, and a Dog House for the spam of the week. The Brit List every month since 2020. Country lists pulled from HiveSQL. He also runs tenkminnows@tenkminnows to help good Hivers level up, and proofofbrian@proofofbrian, a bot that catches your tag typos.

And there's the question he keeps asking. When growth? He thinks the next wave could come from niche groups on Reddit and Facebook who have never heard of us, and that the real problem is not the price, it is not enough content to find. Hive is fun regardless, he says. We just need more people.

Welcome to Hive Thrive Community Hour, Episode 78

Hive Thrive Community Hour is our weekly town hall for builders, critics, curators, and anyone still stubborn enough to care about where this chain is heading. No scripts. No talking points handed out in advance. Just open conversation.

🎙️ What we'll talk about:

• not the only Hivian in the village

• follow friday, every friday, forever

• eighty rep and never chasing trending

• when growth?

There may be hard truths.

There may be laughs.

There may be mild discomfort.

Come hang out with us

Hive Thrive isn't meant to be just another background podcast.

We treat it like a live town hall for the blockchain —

• a place where devs, witnesses, curators, creators, and critics can speak in the same room

• a space to explore the tools, tensions, and governance structures actually shaping Hive

• and a setting where honest conversation can replace years of silence, fear, or misunderstanding

We're here to —

✅ Help people understand what's actually happening behind the scenes

✅ Surface the real stories behind Hive's institutions and projects

✅ Talk openly about drama, governance friction, and systemic issues

✅ Look for ways forward that strengthen the network instead of dividing it
