Consuming Content on Hive .:. Recap of Hive Humpday Hangout Ep.42 + HHHLive Show Recording (April 23, 2025)

2025-04-26T22:22:21
It looks like in the week after Easter, people tend to enjoy their holidays and spend more time outside of homes, computers, and other electronic devices, as we didn't have many participants in the show, and a similar pattern happened in other HIVE-related shows on Discord... Despite that, we had fun in the latest #HHHLive show where we discussed consuming content on HIVE, and things related to it...
Recap
There was a tough audience and not many felt comfortable enough to jump on the microphone during the show, but in the end, I wasn't left alone... On the other side, it was busy in the chat channel that we were following, so in the end, we exchanged much useful information, and as usual, learned something new!

In the beginning, I shared my story about content creation and consumption... Shared some experiences from the past when I realized the importance of comments, engagement, and content consumption as they are closely connected... I would say that they are our retention warriors! Without engagement on the social network, there is no meaning to it at all!
To do so, it's important to create content that you like, know, and are passionate about, as then, you can give the most value, which brings the most audience, and consumption! When you do that, the comments will come, but it's important to do the same, go out and support others, and reply to comments on your posts! Recent initiatives like CommentRewarder or TopComment are great additions to HIVE as they incentivize people to engage more!

It was busy in chat, as people were sharing their interests on HIVE... @mypathtofire shared that he likes to consume Splinterlands, Bitcoin, crypto content, arts, etc, while @mypathtofire came for photography, but found some other content and communities too!
@solominer likes gardening and homesteading stuff, as those posts give him ideas he can implement in his garden! @solominer consumes writing content, but topics depend on her mood, time, and energy... Reflections, travel posts, photography, handcrafts... and drama... 😃 Who doesn't like a juicy drama? 😂 @solominer shared that through curation for Ecency, she discovers diversified topics and new people!
@friendlymoose mentioned the problem with content discovery and the need for better filters for HIVE content! It was great to see @friendlymoose sharing an existing tool for exactly that! I think that nobody from the participants knew about it, so it was super useful information! You can check it out at this link: https://hive-hound.the-hive-mobile.app/

During the show, I did 2 small POLLS about the content consumption on HIVE... The first question was to pick one of two options to the question: "Do you consume LONG or SHORT form content?" And the second was about the type of content, "Text, videos, photos, or audio." I have to admit that I was a bit surprised about the results for both polls, but maybe they were expected... Also, our preferences can change through time, and we could change our consuming habits...
I mentioned at the beginning of the post that I wasn't alone on the mic today... Closer to the end of the show, @duskobgd came on the mic, and he shared that he likes to read and consume travel content mostly... He likes posts with many photos, but also about the history of the visited places... He also likes the Hive Collectors community and the Beer community... Despite not being a big beer drinker, he deep-dived and discovered craft beers thanks to HIVE!

As always, we had an after-show where some new people joined, too! That part isn't recorded, so if you want to know what we are talking about in that part, you should join the next show! 😃

Thank you, guys and girls, once again! As a sign of appreciation, I will send some LEN tokens to all participants of the live show! You can pair them with LENM tokens, add liquidity to the diesel pool, and earn rewards! If you want to learn more about the project behind it, check out the @liotes account or visit the Liotes website... Of course, if you are not interested in it, you can sell tokens on the Hive-Engine market...
To encourage more people to come on the mic, I usually send additional ECENCY points for those who are sharing things in voice... This week, 100 POINTS go to @duskobgd as only he was ready to "jump in the fire" and talk on the mic! 😃
Special thanks goes to @melinda010100 and @melinda010100-karma for providing the space for the event!
Thank you for your time.
