If you are talking about Marc, he doesn't only support me but most content creators. However, this is obvious that I'm not just doing good only in Read Cash. I joined Medium one month ago and immediately my articles started enjoying high numbers. One month later I am making 500 views daily. There is certainly a big problem in Hive and it is exactly as I explained it. If you think this was just complaining then this is wrong perception.
It is how I see Hive after two months here. When compared to Medium or Read Cash, this platform has no future.
Hive people have enough experience to support the most loyal members here. It's not about how many views you have, how awesome is your writing, how popular you are in other social media. It's about the community. If you are bringing value to the community, you will be rewarded enough. But being here only 2 months and saying that much about it doesn't look that valuable. Just avoid drama, be in touch with people, create great content, build something here or help others building and everything will be ok. And of course stakeholders should be respected. Some of them earned that by hard work, some invested their own money. Even those who get that from the old mining thing of steem did enough to keep their stake, they didn't just withdraw it, but left everything here to keep building their accounts, reputations and influence. I don't know a lot about read cash and how it works, but being that supported there doesn't mean that you will be supported forever. I even have a little problem now with noise, I keep earning, but nothing is sent to my account. Something like that can happen anytime with other websites. You can't imagine how much of them I tried. But I never had such problem in hive.
I think to be sure of a platform, we should look at the long term of it. We can't say our opinion about using a platform for a few months. In that time so many websites turned to scam.
So, in my opinion if someone keep creating in a platform, it's better to help it to improve, to do what's possible. Otherwise wasting time in it and being negative and spoiling the mind of others is just a waste of time.
It validates what I said above. This is not about creating content, it is about becoming more powerful. Anyway, if this is a negative talk, I stop, but had to engage and explain how it felt. There is no bias in my opinion and I didn't write anything to make you feel bad. It was me feeling bad so far and wanted to express it. Maybe two months time is not enough, I will keep using Hive and we will see, maybe after a year, I will have actual people reading my articles and better interaction with this community, so I'm going to wait and if something changes I may start writing exclussive content for Hive again (tried that before when I started).
Waiting is not enough. You should be active yourself. How people will find about you if you are not finding them yourself ? Building an audiance is a tough work. You are lucky you have a supporter in read you may found that fast. But in every platform we have the same chance to be found by the right people or not. It always depends on our activity. And I didn't say that's all about the power. It's about a lot of things. I wish you watched my video to learn from my 4 years experience being with this community every single day ! You may add to all that, the proof of learning. I'm still learning and we have many people learning here everyday. How to act, how to be successful, how to create better content, how to be found, the best communities and tribes to create in. Etc. I'm doing the same in noise to be seen somehow. I'm trying to create in as many chambers as I can. That's how I get more than 50 followers in about 2 months. You can explore our communities yourself : https://hive.blog/communities . There are a lot of them.
As well it's not about what the platform is doing to you, but what about you are doing to the platform. Bring value = get value !
