Talking to anyone about Hive: The value of onboards

avatar

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

A little bit of Hive Philosophy, I guess. It seems fitting for a Sunday after all. Do tell me your thoughts on the topic. Have you ever onboarded anyone? What was the experience like?

What a beautiful message @meno

I've tried to onboard one person. But as soon as they found out about down voting, they refused to go further. So I've been quite hung up about that. I also realise that I've used it as an excuse to avoid onboarding others.

Now, inspired by your video, I can see that I must focus on positives. There's clearly a mountain of enjoyment to experience on Hive. So I should encourage people to use Hive and find ways to avoid pitfalls.

DVs can seem bad if you get them, but Hive does need defences. If you get on the wrong side of a big account then you have problems and they are free to do what they want. I've not had a DV in a while that I've noticed. I think Hive has more positives than negatives for most people.

It's not so much a personal issue with me. More that I see the damage that it does to the platform.

But of course, the only way to fix it is from the inside.

My biggest concern is that we still seem to have a "Wild West Frontier" attitude. That seems to stem from the need to be decentralised. But surely we can recognise that:

  1. Down voting for personal reasons must be limited to the total of up votes that have been given to the author in the past. I.e. "I have supported you in the past. But because of this post, I'm withdrawing (some of) that support"
  2. Down voting for the sake of the platform should be a community responsibility. Or, for non-community posts, the responsibility of the publisher. I.e. the frontend. Because self-appointed censorship is evil.

I suspect people want the actual platform to stay neutral. How do you judge the reasons for a downvote? As it is DVs are a tiny percentage of total votes, but then they get concentrated on a few people. I don't have influence on anyone to change that, just the same witness votes as anyone else.

Hive is not easy to understand even for technical people. I've been trying to explain it to someone who is very experienced online, but then I think he has some anti-crypto bias. I'm not necessarily the best marketing person.

Did you miss me? I told you that I'm not talking to you on Insta any more. It will all be in public on the blockchain and not every day. I want the truth out there that I can't help you despite over 100 comments from you in a year plus many more mentions. You just keep saying the same things, but that doesn't change the fact that I can't help you and I'm tired of saying that. I really don't care what 'proof' you have seen as I know who my friends are. They are not those whales. I don't know his motives, but you have to make peace with him if you want it to stop. That is all I can say as I can't make him stop. Just ask him if I can...

Don't try and be funny with me as you would never do that in real so don't try it online

You are talking shit again you know you can help but you choose not to do you think everyone is stupid

Talk how you was talking on Instagram 😂 you won't say it here will you you won't call them name's here's will you 😂

It's clear they have told you what to do

Do you think playing tough will do anything 🤔

You can't change who you are

I keep saying the same thing because it's the truth

I'm tired of being downvoted by your racist friend who also owns Hive 🤔

It's clear you don't know who your friends are as they don't care about you

You can keep lying that he is not your friend but we all know he is 😂

I've tried to make peace with him but it is clear he has some major mental health issues

I've already seen conversation between you and him 😂

Please stop trying to play games with me I don't play game's 🙏🏾

What a great way to see it @meno! You are not asking them to help you, you are asking them to let you teach them how to fish, use the tools available and EARN bitcoin and Hive without taking ANY financial risk

If more people adopt the way we think, onboarding will be part of the nature of a hivean. Don't you think? Why would you not want your friends, your family, to come partake of this opportunity?

Well, it’s hard. It’s just hard and most of the tech here is total shit. This is why u don’t see peoples families on here. They are sick and tired of the bugs since they don’t have bags they leave. But those of us with bags stay and pretend the bugs don’t exist and also pretend that the millions we have spent on certain apps, particularly the close source ones are just good enough, rather than demanding better from those with funding to make our communities tech totally smooth and without bugs. So there is that. Maybe we can get the devs to use their own tech on mobile devices eventually and see how poor it is for themselves.

But yes the approach u are taking is the right one imo generally. U are allowing people to help themselves with no financial risk at all while living cheaper lives and more free. It’s win win logic
