I will say this again, as I have said many times before: You can build a web site with content, but it takes engagement to build a COMMUNITY.

And what "sells," in terms of attracting new users, is having a vibrant community. I appreciate the Engagement League, and I'd like to think we can get from the current 300-400 making a blip each week to somewhere in excess of 1,000 users a week. They would be the backbone of Hive... I also hope old initiatives like "Newbie Re-Steem Day" can be reborn on Hive to make our newcomers feel like they just got involved with a friendly place.

I do believe we have a bright future ahead... BUT it's up to US to create that bright future. There is no "them" who's gonna make it happen...
