I do agree with you generally, and often specifically.

"Does it need financial incentive to keep the party going?"

The problem of centralization financializing the content of posters neglecting to share that financial return with the content creators was the basis for the creation of the chain we are on. It is an ENORMOUS opportunity to replace Web2 with Hive.

Hive needs to provide that financial incentive. Grandma seems to continue posting cat pics without it, but making it available to creators here will bring them here, because everyone likes money. I learned that from 'Idiocracy'. You like money. I like money. Everyone likes money. That's Hive's secret weapon to conquer the social media financial sector that has grown to become the largest financial sector in global markets in the last ten years - while this chain has failed to capitalize on that. We can do better. I hope we do.
