ScreenShot of Project HOPE Community in Beta.Steemit
Hello everyone, I am not an expert, so I will speak only from my limited personal experience and give my impressions on the subject, you are already warned ㋡ this post is a translation of one that I just published in Spanish.
I had read about the implementation of communities in the STEEM blockchain for a few weeks, but I admit that I had not paid much attention. But, in a post of @crypto.piotr I found a comment that caught my attention, they asked:
What is hive-xxxxxx?
He was referring to the first label of the post, that case was #hive-175254
The answer was:
Hi
Did you hear about communities on beta.steemit.com?
We just created and I'm testing "Project HOPE" community and hive-175254 seem to be ID of this community.
Check out this link and subscribe: https://beta.steemit.com/created/hive-175254
Cheers
As you can understand, since I have been close to some of the members of the @project.hope and they have given me a lot of support, advice and guidance to learn about this platform, I immediately went to visit the link.
Well, the interface of Beta.Steemit does not differ much from that of Steemit and in that sense I do not have much to highlight, but the possibility of organizing interest groups and publications in a better way seemed to me a good advance. Ok, with the labels and with the tribes something like that was done, but I think it didn't work for me (it may be because of my lack of expertise).
For now they are starting and when exploring the list of communities there are not many, but at least it seems to me that there are several that are interesting to participate and be able to share with a better defined Target Audience or Target, I imagine that here an old colleague who He is a professor of advertising and marketing could explain things better, but for now it will be enough to point out that by successfully segmenting the population we are addressing, we have a greater capacity and better possibilities of achieving effective and efficient communication to give Know our ideas and promote interaction with other participants who share our interests.
Now, I have to admit that I have become quite used to using the frontend of @steempeak with preference and I was wondering if I could check the communities directly there. I noticed that I could not find any direct option for this, but I found a solution as simple as it was effective: When exploring the topics, simply add a search with the tag of the community that interested me and then mark the star that appears next to the headline to save it as "Favorite"
With that already done, you can see that you can save all the communities you want, although I would like it to allow me to put a nickname to my favorite searches, because for now they only appear as hive-xxxxxx, but in short it is already an advance for my.

You can see in the block at the top left that three communities are saved as "favorite topics" for now.
Well, if the Beta site already allows you to navigate in the communities, why did I look for a way to do it from another frontend? Ok, it was a matter of personal taste, I like the ease with which I can create predesigned templates on this platform, the programming of publications without complications, the direct consultation to my wallet with a graph of constant update of the price of STEEM and SBD, among others stuff.
I think that at this point it goes without saying that I am using in all cases the dark theme of the platforms, but I better point it out in case some clueless reader thinks about asking. Well, that's it, I would like to know if this was of any use.
