Thanks!

I think Hive really would be helped to attract new people if there were more ways or initiatives that 'guarantee' a certain amount of smaller upvotes in a way that can't be exploited. I remember in the past way back in the steemit days that it was possible to summon a minnowsupport upvote in the discord or how there were the busy.org upvotes based on the total HP of the people who followed you

Right now, it feels like new users are just pushed toward bending their content toward what gets supported by curation groups or challenges as that is the main way to get upvotes instead of actually making a blog with some passion behind it.

At the same time, its also quite nice to see the group of users who have been here since 2016-2017 and are sticking to posting content here which kind of shows that Hive is doing something right. Some core issues like content discovery & actually getting what's interesting to outside people who check Hive on top of trending really need to be fixed but it's hard to do without real leadership.
