I think you might have missed the deadline, but have an upvote anyway! I can relate to having to sell Hive to pay bills; had to do a major powerdown about 18 months ago to pay a property tax bill. Hated

I'm probably as much of a cynic as you are, and I don't for a moment think that this is "the answer" to anything. It is, however — at least from my perspective — at least a tiny light in the

As much as anything, I am just hopeful that an initiative like this will remind people that this is (allegedly) a social network, and it's a good idea to be "be social."

I thought so... and at least worth a mention and a plug!

Even if this particular initiative doesn't turn out to be the end-all solution, at least it's a step in the right direction. And if there are more than a few posts that get substantial engagement, it at

That makes you a bit of a rarity in the world of Hive... most people here are content creators not content consumers. Of course, it would also help newcomers if it were easier to understand the whole signup

I agree that would be the ideal, but it's not necessarily the reality. You address something important in pointing out that Facebook groups work this way. It was always my hope for Hive that communities

I'm open to the fact that different people want different things. I'm a writer/blogger first, and everything else is just a bonus of sorts.

That's pretty awesome how the journey turned out for you! It's always good to hear that crypto "worked out" for someone. Nice boat!

TBH, I prefer people's random ramblings and venting to ostensible "real" content because I was always more interested in the Internet of PEOPLE than the Internet of THINGS. Which, perhaps, points

That's pretty much how I saw it in the beginning, as well. I was tired of hosting sites just shutting down and losing hundreds of hours of work because it just vanished overnight. People do respond to

If I understand correctly, the most recent iteration includes @commentrewarder following anyone who uses it, and creating a reblogged feed of all those posts. Should help with visibility.

I really appreciate the fact that you keep trying different things to get activity boosted here! We definitely lost something here when Asher stopped doing the Engagement and Curation Leagues, so anything

If I understand it correctly, the rewards will only go to comments you upvote (even 1%) but if you don't upvote a comment, it'll be excluded.

Thanks for stopping by; I do remember you from "way back when." I'm not going to pour energy into railing against what's already in the history books... I can think of a myriad reasons why things

Welcome to Hive! In some ways, you're the perfect candidate for using CommentRewarder because you can offer an incentive for engagement even though you might not have the Hive Power to upvote comments.

Zeke's always good for genuine interaction... definitely worth a follow. I like your initiative and enthusiasm here; Hive can use more of that! Might consider having #favouritecommentfriday #fcf and

I hope it works. I hope something works! Thanks for the @tokenfaucet reminder... it's one of those that briefly slid across my radar, and then vanished into the mists again. I try to reward good comments,

That is exactly right! Most of the early iterations of LiveJournal, OpenDiary, MDD and Xanga didn't have blogs "about" anything... it was all about life and hobbies and such.

I had to take a look as I don't often see reviews of beers from my native Denmark! Although it has been a few years since I last made it back there, it seems there is a growing number of quite good craft
