Ditto. You summed up my thoughts about this perfectly.

I've been blogging since the days of bulletin boards (late 1980's) and in all that time I've never come across a platform that consistently rewards content creators like hive does.

The nearest thing that came close was tsu that @steevc mentioned but that went down in flames primarily because it had a single point of failure...it was centralized.

Hive was born from conflict by a group of people who have been around the block a few times and knew there was a better way to do things.

Like you. I enjoy taking photos and making videos which I put out into the world not for the money it might make but simply because I like doing it.

Complaints about rewards distribution is the oldest chestnut topic going. There will always be someone who would like more rewards but for what?

Equating posting to an hourly rate is quite frankly bonkers. We are not inventing a longer lasting lightbulb here or curing some dread disease.

We are having fun and if that process happens to earn 'any' rewards. Then be grateful that people thought it was interesting enough to warrant an upvote.

Don't do it for the money. That mindset leads to misery. 😂👍🏼
