Hello everyone! Welcome to the first edition of HIVE-HYPE! HIVE-HYPE will become a weekly post where I recap some of the exciting news, updates, events, and posts from the past week on the Hive platform. My plan is to have this bee a helpful resource to check-in on to make sure you're all caught up with the latest & greatest on Hive. If you have any posts / suggestions you want me to consider for next week's showcase, feel free to drop me a comment down below & I'll have a look :^)
NOTE:As this was our very first week on Hive, you should know that this post is going to be considerably larger than the others. We have LOTS of projects that have migrated, so get ready for an avalanche of info!
Dapps + Software
Hive picked up a load of new fun goodies to it's ecosystem this week, let's take a look!
Hive Keychain is the best way to easily & securely log in to your favorite dapps running on Hive. Being a port of the old Steem Keychain, it has all the same ease-of-use & quality-security that you've come to expect from it. Props to Hive account@stoodkev for the impressive work.
Unfortunately, it's not available on the webstores at the moment, but fear not, for both Hive account@themarkymark & Hive account@someguy123 have written guides on how you can get up & running with both Chrome & FireFox:
Hive account@therealwolf has ported the old SteemDapps site over to the, much better ;^), HiveDapps site & now we all have a simple & easy place to see all the dapps for Hive!
Hive.Blog finally got it's web-wallet feature working properly, so if you use that frontend you can now easily access & manage you wallet! GG, Hive account@hiveio!
Arguably the best frontend in the game, Hive account@peakd, has been hard at working building a whole slew of updates, upgrades, and fantastic changes to Peakd. I highly recommend this frontend. Plus, the team is amazing!
Another popular frontend + mobile app team, Hive account@esteemapp, has released the Hive update for both desktop & mobile esteem apps! Plus, they got a pretty slick new logo. Double-plus, they have free sign-ups that are working super smooth for new users!
Hive account@pharesim shares HiveInvite, a tool to easily onboard new people onto Hive! I used it already to bring in someone from Reddit. It works great!
Hive.Vote allows you to setup a load of auto-voting features, including both upvotes & downvotes. It offers curation trails, and fanbase support. Very good for automating your Hive support!
Rewarding.app is another auto-voter tool, this one ported by Hive account@holger80. It offers a wide variety of commands and features, similar to Hive.vote.
Hive account@engrave gives a very helpful & easy tool to replace all your content on Steem with links prompting users to read it on Hive instead. It's your content, you should have control over where it lives!
Hive account@inertia shares HiveSQL for Ruby, which is a very helpful tool for any Ruby programmers out there that want to make use of the hivesql subscription service.
My boy Hive account@thecrazygm has released some more updates for HiveView - an open-sourced frontend alternative.
He's been hard at work on this thing for the past couple of days, and it's been amazing to see his progress. Can't wait for this thing to fully get out there in the world!
Bonus:He's also shared a nifty python-library that allows you to drop all your delegations to 0, so you can have a fresh start :^)
Hive account@techcoderx introduces Hive blockchain support for dTube via his "OneLoveIPFS" uploader. This dude has been a consistent & hard-working developer, props to him for his work ethic!
Ports & Supports
services, initiatives, and more that are ported to Hive & will continue their support for this platform
Hive account@steembasicincome has successfully migrated over to Hive & are now running on both chains. However, you are able to transfer your SBI units from Steem over to Hive if you wish!
For those of you who don't know, Hive account@prc is a long time former-Steem now Hive user, who has done a lot of great stuff. Chief among them being the developer of dSound which is basically our version of SoundCloud.
! I plan to make these posts much shorter & refined in the future, but I wanted to kick things off with a bang of all the wonderful stuff that has happened in only our first 7 days! And I'm sure there's some I missed!
If you have any suggestions, feedback, comments, recommendations, or anything at all, please do let me know in the comments. I'm looking forward to having this become a weekly thing. See you all next time! :^)
Please go give upvotes & support those who are on this list! They are doing great work.
