Of course we won't have most of this, BUT just a few dapps, games and NFTs would be an absolute bonus for Blurt. This would mean alternative sign ups via other channels...
What most people don't know... The most Hive signups come from Splinterlands, NOT from Hive!!!
I think it should be done on a slightly different way. Hivesteem has been going for years and it still has a tiny base despite giving away free money to use it. Clearly it’s too complicated for most ppl who either don’t sign up or give up after 2/3 posts. It simply has terrible retention, all these platforms have, despite essentially paying ppl to use them lol. For whatever reason to most ppl it’s not engaging enough or isn’t appealing enough. The majority of hive users now are splinterland players. Ppl need to look more to fb as even tho o agree with @frot that all these things are cia experiments there was obviously something far more appealing about MySpace and fb than there has ever been about hive. They were designed to be addictive let’s be honest. I think perhaps ppl need to look for clues on MySpace and early fb to see where these platforms are going wrong. Even doge got more mainstream adoption than hive or steemit ever got... it was simple : I think games should be more like on fb where they are on separate pages and don’t get posted on your actual blog and I think the inclusion of an inbox rather than having to go over to discord would make all The difference actually. Ppl love moving things to messenger and not all on the blog. It also needs more engaging discussion than just nice post sir lol blurt is better at this than any I hVe been on.
People are just not interested I’ve sold it to hundreds or more creatives over my time who would love to make extra money and they either don’t sign up or made a few posts and left: my bf loves conspiracies and always on twitter etc yet came here and left within a few posts as just forgets to sign in. It’s just not compelling enough at some point we hAbe to stop blaming ppl for not staying and wonder why all these sites are not as interesting to ppl as other sites, even when they are being paid to use them.
The messenger thing is awesome! I agree with you there! We just need a developer, that will take on the challenge...
There are many of those here!!!! I call them realists... xD

I think kuSt looking at why ppl got so hooked on MySpace and early Facebook it defo wasn’t dapps
I mean MySpace was awesome back in the day and I think it was that you could connect to ppl from all over the world and it was just simple and fun rly. A few photos, a wall and an inbox. I think the Mo inbox thing takes a lot of interest away tbh

Oooh yeah, private messages would be amazing.
Tbh if @megadrive is working on meta this is the next big thing Blockchain is done and dusted now rly the places to invest now is meta. I’ve been to numerous events with very smart ppl and that’s pretty clear. So if he does install an element of meta into this platform it could change everything.
Yes, that would be awesome!
What's meta? I hope you don't mean FaceBook!
The metaverse is the next tech. I’m
Not saying it’s good but it’s the next thing coming. I guess escaping from reality further as ppl will have their own characters, you will be able to virtually meet with each other in virtual meeting rooms. It’s sort of merging reality and tech rly. It’s hard for me to explain but it’ll be next No doubt about it along with ai vr ar etc.
I think it’s dangerous to a point keeping ppl even more hooked in an online world but it will come next and then probably the chip to connect you without a phone so you can just think oh I want to meet with drutter and outofthematrix and have a chat and we will all be together virtually in a meeting room. The phone can’t get any smaller now cause of the screen so next step is a chip for sure.
I think we need more arrows
Splinterlands is THE only thing keeping the hive network Working, while another group of Flaggots FAKE running a blog while Shitcoining The HBD Scam.
Blurt is way ahead 🥓
I knew that about splinterlands tho it’s somethint like 50 k users and 20 k bloggers on hive I heard. But they just spam up the place and make it worse so I don’t think it helps hive as a blog grow . The games should be slightly seperate links imo
They add massive value to the chain.
I personally disagree it’s just filled the platform with junk anyone not playing gets sick of seeing, so now most ppl are splinter land players. It’s ok seeing it if you play but no one else wants to see it. It’s also not getting any kind of mass adoption of regular ppl. They have been going 7 years now and still only have something like 20 k active bloggers and 50 k playing an online game that’s sort of connected, when paying ppl to use to the platform essentially. IMO all the social blockchain sites have so far failed pretty much and need to readdress their strategy and why they are failing. If any where successful by now they would have a million active users at least.
1.62 BILLION users on average visit Facebook every day And hive can’t even retain over 20,000 people to blog actively over 7 years, hive has 4K logging in and doing anything per day. That is literally nothing, one viral instagrammer gets more likes than that daily. Since a lot of those are splinterlands players that means it’s probablt about 1 k ppl logging onto hive daily. I have 6 times More fb friends than that on my old fb without trying. I only have less now cause I started over to be Moreno picky. On top of this hive and all these blogs are essentially paying ppl to use them . It’s about time they actually went to the drawing board and thought we are doing something wrong here but, but I think they’re too egocentric to do that and only want to hear hive is the best bullshit. I would like blurt to do that too because let’s be honest none of the social Blockchain platforms are anything like successful if you look at them against regular platforms.
I mean truly these numbers are embarasing. It is no where near going amazingly. It is essentially a complete failure that after 7 years they have 4 k ppl logging in every day and most of those are using a game that should clearly branch off and go on its own. I’m not saying blurt is any better but rly none of these platforms are even remotely succeeding in general figures. The fact I have more fb friends than Log onto hive each day is redic.
If hive gets another one or two splinter lands they’ll be massive
