Hello Hivians, hope you are having a good time. If you are an outsider and haven't yet explored the Hive ecosystem, you might not feel the versatility of this ecosystem. And probably that is why some people don't get to understand the platform and the ecosystem well and quit after some time.
The thing that keeps me glued to Hive platform is how it rewards me and also seeing these different people from different parts of the world thus making me believe more on the platform seeing these real people who belong to different walks of life.
And this is something that shows how Hive as a platform is still here rewarding users for the content which they share in the form of hobbies, travel, business, finance etc.

Now, if you are on Hive and expect things your way, you might at one time get frustrated to the extent you quit. And I have seen some people whom I have referred. They join, post a few times, and quit.
This is why it needs to be understood that the moment you join Hive, you have to take it as a journey. It is not something like crypto trading etc.
It takes time for businesses to establish their names and brands. Your Hive username is more like a brand for you. If you were able to earn the trust of the community with the good work you do on the platform, you could earn some nice rewards.
On Hive, you can literally start from zero without investing even a single penny, and there might be other people including myself who started from zero. But only if they are somewhat successful because they believed in this platform and were consistent.
Hive is a place bringing people from all over the world. Users are paid in Hive and HBD for the content they share and Hive as digital currency is not something that is for a certain locality or people. Anyone in the world can earn Hive.
Frankly, I haven't been successful doing things online in the hope to earn some income but with the help of Hive, I am able to earn some amount that is helping me in these times of high inflation as sometimes my expenses go beyond the salary I receive for my 9 to 5.
Hive as an ecosystem is open to all people from all over the world with no discrimination against any group of people. In other words, it has broken down all the borders and invites people to demonstrate their skills, talent, etc, and earn rewards as long as they follow the guidelines.
Hive has these different communities that are keeping the like-minded together sharing content they want to see which is another thing for one's exposure and connecting with like-minded from across the globe.
There is no time restriction while showing up on Hive, you can do so in the comfort of your own. However, it's good to show up on a regular basis staying in order to keep yourself intact with the community.
Now that Hive is evolving and it has these different projects built over it providing more opportunities for the developers, business owners, and the users is something to be worth mentioning.
Doesn't matter if you don't like to write long-form content, you can try microblogging as well on Hive. LeoThreads is a platform where users do Twitter-type microblogging. Zuckerberg just recently launched his new Twitter type Thread platform while we already have it in the form of LeoThreads.
If you would also want to add some to my thoughts?
Thanks
