RE: Unpopular Opinion...

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I built my account up by commenting as I didn't have anything special to 'sell' here. A lot of people now know who I am, but I know I'm nothing special when it comes to content.

I try not to judge anyone when they comment on my posts and I almost never check on their wallet, but I do get some who comment on most posts with low value comments. I can see that they comment a lot in hope of some rewards, but I am unlikely to look at their posts. I am busy enough with my feed.

I get that people will try to earn in any way they can, but not leaving yourself with any voting power seems dumb and may get you less support.

I suspect we are likely to see more 'AI' comments in future. We will have to decide what value those have. It may feel safer just to engage with people we know well.

Don't be offended, but I see you as an extreme outlier in this whole thing. What I mean is that you are probably the only person I believe when you say "I am here for the community not the money". I think that gives you a different perspective on the whole thing, which is kind of enviable. I've realized that HIVE isn't going to make me rich, but I'd still like to believe it could be a passive stream of income for me in the (far too distant) future.

I know I'm not typical, but of course I'd love some extra income. I am not going to depend on it as things are so uncertain. I want to see more people benefit from Hive.

I'd like to see people benefit too. I know the best way I can accomplish that personally is by growing my account.

I don't worry too much about that, but it will grow anyway from curation. I am sharing post rewards with commentrewarder so they people giving good engagement get more.

I get that, but I often feel this responsibility to say 'hey, you, stop using AI to comment as I just don't care, and you won't last long here if you're dong that'.

And god, if I never meet anyone new here because i'm in my safety bubble, I'm going to get very, very bored.

I said 'may' :) We all have limited time and we may not want to do a deep investigation of everyone we interact with. Perhaps we will get tools to help with that. I think the reputation score can be some guide as to whether someone is genuine, but it's not foolproof.

I keep looking out for people who share my interests. I want Hive to replace other platforms for certain things.
