Yes, I also have fond memories of the good old days on Steemit. I once bought a work of art, which the artist sent me with a personal dedication and framing, including dispatch, by accepting HBD. In my job as a systemic counsellor, I myself offered sessions under the premise of SBD as a means of payment. In fact, there was one. But demand remained low and everything then disappeared under the new way of marketing yourself as a blogger. The platform is too small, in my opinion, to serve as a marketplace for real goods and services. A different direction has been taken with the obvious reward system. You are rewarded for what you say and not what you offer as a service or product. This keeps the level at a certain performance level, but remains below the possibilities.

If I would, for example, put something onto the chain which numerous people can then use for their own purposes, I run the risk of being under payed. If they only use it but don't pay me, I will most likely not publish the details of my service.

Right now, I would not accept HBD as a payment. Other than for maybe a service which does not cause me to invest a lot of time and real objects to perform what I sell.

I'll take a look at hivelist.io

What would you personally like to sell? Goods from a farm-shop as suggested in your picture?
