I recently came across two interesting posts in LeoFiance - one from
@taskmaster4450:

"It seems that people are starting to catch on to the concept that is Hive. While many other blockchains have a lot more money and traffic, they lack what is a basic part of Hive" - Social media.

Where he refers to an article by Ethereum's Vitalik in which Vitalik stresses the need for Ethereum to move beyond DeFi hype and become home to more useful dApps like decentralized social media.

The other one is from @edicted:

In which he states that "the cryptosphere is constantly talking about the need for decentralized social media. However, surprisingly, no matter how much Hive/Steem is in the news circuit, no one talks about us like we're relevant.

This is a big problem, because all these people act like they want decentralized social media that no one controls, when in reality they want a new project that they control that everyone jumps in on and they get rich. Yeah... that's not how this works.

Hive is constantly suppressed.

It is truly an insult the way Hive is treated on a daily basis. It's one thing to constantly harp on the need for decentralized social media while claiming that Hive isn't a valid option, but that's not what's happening. We are completely ignored to the point of non-existence."

Makes you wonder that given there is a huge need and demand for decentralized social media, as Taskmaster4450 and Vitalik state, why Hive did not take off and spread like wildfire?

Again, makes you wonder if the answer lies, at least in part, in what Edicted states as "Hive is constantly suppressed"?

And what Hivers can do as a community to reach out and onboard new users?
