You might have noticed while perusing your feed on HIVE that not many posts have comments. Most of those that do have only a few and often those are left by bots.
This post by @dalz brings the matter to the forefront by revealing the analytics.

As your marketing expert friend might tell you, engagement is a very important factor when building an online business. Especially if it's in the genre of social media.
Growth Hacking might just be the term of the decade. But how do you growth hack engagement if it's lacking? This post by Forbes explains in detail.
The jist of it is that user engagement (or lack thereof) affects the visibility of the platform or online business.
It's not hard to follow...perhaps the better questions are:
- Why is engagement so low?
- What actions will improve it?
We know the why may be helpful but it's the action that will really make a difference.
I suspect that at least part of the why has to do with the buzz. Back when BTC was soaring there was plenty of buzz. So much so that it had the residual effect of hanging on for a while.
That buzz may be gone but it shouldn't be. And even if it is, it will be back again. But is it too soon to start buzzing? With everything going on in the world, the markets look promising to me.

While there are actions the developers of HIVE can take to increase engagement, there are also things we can do as a community.
It's not tough to see...make it a habit to comment at least a couple times a day on different posts. I know it can be a stretch, but building connections on social platforms is ok. I promise.
In case you're not sure where to begin, here's a few recent posts by people I follow that would be perfect to start on.
