This post is such a relatable post. I really connect with the feeling of freedom you talked about regarding Hive. It’s not just about the attention a post receives but the authenticity and the connections it creates within ourselves and with others. I’ve been on Hive for 7 years, and I really enjoy it because there’s no other platform quite like it. It’s a space where I feel comfortable sharing anything that’s on my mind, whether it’s something really personal or just some random thoughts. It's amazing to write in broken English (my third language), and still getting rewarded for it LOL. It’s all about growth and discovering my voice. Hive provides me with a wonderful opportunity to grow, learn from my mistakes, and become better as time goes on. What makes me want to return to Hive? It’s the feeling of being appreciated as an individual with something meaningful to share. Here, I can truly be myself without feeling the need to fit in or live up to specific standards. And that, for me, is truly priceless. Thank you for sharing this post.
