Hello Hivers, how's going?😎

I'm writing this thanks to @theycallmedan and his Communities Discovery Initiative. The main intent of the initiative is to share your favorite communities and spread the words around the world. More details here.

Communities are an important part of the Ecosystem that makes up the Hive Blockchain, of course in addition to decentralized applications, user access interfaces, and decentralized games.
And there is a bunch of them.

First, I will borrow one graph from @penguinpablo which regularly publishes Hive blockchain statistics.

Every day a few communities are formed. It’s important to know, especially for new members, that anyone on the Hive blockchain can create their own niche content community and then of course manage it.

Some communities have many members, some few, some even have their own tokens, and it all depends primarily on the content that users want to present. Users in communities post, comment, discuss with kindred spirits, and views on what the community represents.

And now it's my turn :)

I would first mention the BEER community, about the third most drunken liquid on earth, which was the first one I joined.

It brings together all of us who love beer and of course about what we write or record. It currently has 565 members who report and comment on each of their new beer adventures every week - #beersaturday. The goal of the group is mainly fun and socializing. The community also has its own token BEER with which you can reward good posts or comments or, simply stake it.
The admin and driving force of the community is

@detlev, all congratulations go to him for his efforts.

The next, very niche community I post in is Shadow Hunters, which specializes in shadows.

Any original photo with an interesting shadow is welcome. It has 330 members, the administrator who takes care of the community is

And the last community I would mention is Alien Art Hive.

Every now and then I have artistic glimpses that I post here, this is just one of the art communities, it currently has 981 members and is a place for people to post art and music that is so-called other-worldly, inter-dimensional, unusual, or strangely beautiful!

Kudos to @juliakponsford for caring for the community.
