I spend up to 20 hours a week on Hive related 'Microtasks'!

I estimate that I spend between 12-20 hours a week on Hive 'microtasks', which is basically everything else on Hive besides concentrated writing on longer form content.

By microtasks I mean those activities which typically take no longer than a few minutes, and they tend to be interactive - activities such as replying to posts and responding to comments, playing games on Hive or trading on Hive-Engine.

My Hive Daily Micro-tasks

1. Check my @revisesociology feed, read and vote.
2. Try and get a @tipu in on at least one post.
3. Reply to comments.
4. Check my @revise.leo feed, read and vote.
5. reply to comments
6. Claim rewards on Peakd, sort rewards (buy Hive/ transfer to HE, savings and/ or power up).
7. Buy Hive-Engine tokens - typically LEO, DEC, SPT in that order.
8. Play my Splinterlands daily quests
9. Check in with the Holy Orca inner Circle on Discord
10. Copy and paste something to blurt
11. Copy and paste something to Publish OX
12. Get my Brew on with CBM, several times a day!

The tasks which vary the most above are replying to comments - sometimes I can spend 30 minutes on that alone, sometimes just a few minutes, and probably about the same variation on reading and replying to posts, it depends what I find when I log on!

The most consistent time consumer is the Splinterlands Daily Quest - I tend to watch the battles so even if I'm on a winning streak, it's going to take me 20 minutes at least. If I'm not on a winning streak (OK, a losing streak!) and the rule sets don't match my quest I can be playing for 40 minutes, and probably not a very happy bunny!

10 and 11 are more like promises to myself - from now on I will do this daily for a month to experiment and see if it's worth cross posting.

Hive weekly tasks

I tend to do these once a week at least.... I can whizz through the lot in 30 mins, but as with the dailies, I tend to be more ponderous and take longer!

1. Power up HE tokens to my alt accounts.
2. Check and vote with @blockbeard and @revise.spt for PAL/ SPT curation respectively.
3. Check the Splinterlands market, buy/ sell cards.
4. Check Splinterlands leases
5. Check the Exode market place, make sure I've got the lowest sell orders on certain cards.
6. Open my Exode drop/ check in with the Exode discord.
7. Check on my witness votes/ DAO
8. Adjust my autovoter.

I may have missed something?!

I had to rewrite most of this as my internet dongle ran out of battery and I'd closed down the window before realising the first (completed) draft hadn't saved, so there may well be something obvious I'm missing.

Total time on microtasks in a week

Even if I'm getting my shifty on, I'm looking at 4 hours a week, and I don't remember the last time I spent that little time on Hive in a week (that's more like a day!).

If I'm generous with myself, it's more like 20 hours a week on average, probably more, because I tend to cycle between tasks - read something, comment, check my wallet, reply to something, go Hive-Engine, go to Discord, read something, reply to something, and so on and on!

I mean Hive is leisure as well as work after all, but if I was mercenary about it, I could still stay engaged with only a few hours work a week!

The list can vary as well depending on what's occurring - with WLEO for example, I spent several minutes a day on Uniswap, which I'm going to call Hive related in that instance!

How long do you spend 'on the chain' doing yer 'microtasks'.

I'd be interesting in knowing how much time everyone else spends on the Chain and how happy they are about it!!?!?

Would you even call the microtasks?!?

Right, off to check me feed! (I never learn!)
