The Germany List: June 2024

Introduction

I have been compiling lists of Hivers in various countries using @hivesql. The profile location data is not very consistent, but I try to group people by area when there are a few. There may be some mistakes due to my lack of local knowledge.

It actually does not take long to put these lists together, but finding all the people in a country takes more work.

German flag from Wikipedia

Currently there are lists like this for:

Commentary

Germany has generally had a very active community, but it seems somewhat diminished now. I ran a query of everyone who was active in the last year, but these numbers are for the last month and you can see that many have stopped posting or voting. Have they gone elsewhere or is Hive just not keeping them engaged?

A hundred people posting is still not bad. There is one witness and a whale. A fair few people have joined in the last year.

I have grouped by some cities and states, but the format is up to the community to work on. They are welcome to take it on and the list is on Github. I am sure there will be a few to add.

I'd like the German community to manage this list if someone can take it on. That could include publicising meetups on the posts. That's what I've done on the UK. I do that monthly so people do not get too many notifications. That is also why I try to avoid editing the posts.

Anyway, the data is there for people to use as they like.

@steevc, @michaelreischer - there are reasons for folks to leave Hive. Theres a full spectre, they are different for diff. folks - some are subjective, some are objective. Tons of annoying marketing will only lead to irrevocable losses of the marketing budget, lol - and the first column in the scheme will increase:

What really needs to be done is to eliminate at least part of the objective reasons why people lose interest after tasting blogging on this platform / evaluating the results. And there is no need to blame them for being lazy and wanting to get something in exchange for nothing. That's not the problem.

There will be lots of reasons including the price, lack of growth, the 'Hive police' and just lack of interest. I think we need to make Hive an engaging platform that people want to use and that is partly down to having more users that they can relate to. We are lacking in big names who would bring others in, but they will be busy elsewhere. If nothing else we ought to be bigger in the crypto community who are using centralised platforms instead.

Agree, -- all this will come in hand.

If nothing else we ought to be bigger in the crypto community who are using centralised platforms instead.

And this, too. Sometimes enterprise is just 'too big to fail', haha - thats one of the things that work in economy too (tho you will not find this principle in textbooks).

My script picks up when a witness is active, but I was missing some of these as they don't have location metadata. I am not planning to do another Germany post in the near future, but if we can collect more names then I could do it again unless someone wants to take on the job.

Yes, Germans are really hard to convince. Most of them want easy money, but don't want to do any work. Even if they write a simple post here on Hive, they lose interest. Even the people who write a lot but hardly get any attention lose the desire to stay on the ball.

It's a shame as the DACH community has been quite active previously. I met a lot of Germans at the 'fests' I went to. @detlev and @tibfox have been organising events in Germany. We need a few more like them.

Unfortunately, that's the case. Not to attack women here, but some of the votes here are wrong. Some write posts with over 1000 words, then a woman comes with a photo, a text and the rest copy and paste text and get a lot of votes, that pisses a lot of people off here. And those who run competitions to keep the community going are criticized by the watchers

The voting may not seem fair, but it's up to people to vote as they want. If Hive grew then the rewards would be spread more, but it is a small club for now. We still all have a chance to earn when we might make nothing elsewhere online. I do think the 'police' can get it wrong at times, but they are just people.

It's fairly loose. The main thing is where people are now, but then I add the expats too. Tracking the travellers is a bit harder. There's no rules for these things and anyone can do them as they want.

LOL. You can just keep a list of those you find. For these list posts I run queries on profile data and then have a script that checks who is active to create a post. It can be done manually if that is manageable. I do this for fun really.

I just did a query of terms like 'world' and 'nomad'. It found a few hundred people, but some of them may not actually be travelling. Only a dozen or so say they are nomads.
