Is there still a buzz on Hive?

slothbuzz in SlothBuzz • 10 days ago

Hey buzzers! What's new?

We've been slothing here at Sloth.Buzz. Our bot never recovered from its last catastrophic failure. Hive Engine seems plagued with DDOS attacks, and Hive (Well, crypto as a whole) took a tank.

Where does that leave the buzz?

Sloth.Buzz was founded with the dream of uniting creators, giving a platform to the small fish and highlighting the best Hive (and crypto) had to offer. Things never really hit the buzz we thought it deserved. Our Dev eventually had to refocus priorities, and we were left at the mercy of Hive-Engine and the 'base' infrastructure here.

Now, credit where credit is due. The outpost/Hive-engine token and fundamentals 'work'. When they're not being affected by 'outside forces'. However, to build a community and really flourish, it requires more than that. More than one little sloth can do for himself, that's for sure.

So, where does that leave us? The token is still minting 6.9 per day as 'pob' rewards for content creation with the #slothbuzz tag. The website still hangs on, showing the excellent slothbuzz content. But...the real community drive is gone, the token trading is at a minimum, so we're not sure if there is a future...

So, I guess, the question is...is anyone still here?
Do we try to breathe some life back into the old buzz, or is it time to say goodbye, as many projects on Hive have done recently?

It's your last chance to have an opinion.
Can you help the sloth buzz?
Are you keen to see things continue?

Is it time for SlothBuzz to be added to the Hive-engine graveyard once and for all?

Have your say now, or forever hold your peace.

Thanks! It might make more sense for us to shift focus to simply supporting other like-minded projects such as Uni-coin. One Sloth can't do everything, unfortunately.

Hive has fallen on hard times. Right now, I don't know how to get more activity on specific communities. If the price can recover, that will help. If we can stop the DHF from bleeding money, that will help.

I believe Hive can recover, but I'm biased. I will still be here working for the future of the coin, anyway.

It seems Hive has continued on the same downward projection for the last few years. Has it missed its chance to really buzz?

We're trying to work out the best next steps for a 'community'. As an individual Sloth, I reckon I will stick around. Hive can be a fun place to be if you ignore all the noise.

It might be more efficient to lump in our efforts with more established communities like Pimp/Bro/BBH or the newer UNI-coin.

dcity was just killed and there are a lot of creators who just lost incredible curation support levels. maybe there is an opportunity here? do you offer any type of delegation rewards? Where can i read more about the project?

How was curation support affected? I had heard about Dcity shutting up shop, along with a few other projects on Hive. Of course, this opens more avenues for other communities to step up; however, I feel we're a little too slothful to make much of an impact.

there were ingame rewards for delegation and this HP was used to curate club members content of any kind but it was never guaranteed and everything was manually curated. I think it would be great if there were something similar that doesnt raise any red flags with the watchful eyes

Indeed, we tend to stay away from the 'delegation for curation' of any kind. We floated the idea a while back but it's highly frowned upon on Hive. We do manually curate all content using the '#Slothbuzz' tag with boosted $Slothbuzz rewards through Sloth.Buzz website. So we give a free boosted curation, no delegation needed.

Unfortunately, most users prefer a 'boosted' Hive curation instead of the Hive-engine token, but we strive to continue highlighting the best content on Hive! Maybe we'll look into some form of delegation service again soon. We'd need to really consider the overall Hive impact with such a move. Thanks for the suggestion.

I don't have the answer but I'll use the tag on my next post.

Why knows what the next bear market might bring.

Appreciated, sloth and steady wins the race and all that. We've had some awesome contributors over our time here. We just need to find the 'best' steps forward.

Ah, that's interesting. I wonder if that may have limited us in some way. Something for us to consider, thanks.

Ever since I saw the website being the standard Hive template, I haven't used the frontend. I clicked the link in the announcement on Discord, but the site wasn't even available to me.

I think some restructure is required to get the sloth buzzing. Question is if it's worth it - I think it is, if the restructure is done correctly.

Yeah, we appreciate that the outpost template isn't the 'best' frontend for Hive users; heck, we tend to use other frontends for most of our commenting, since we get a wider range of posts. It's a nice place to track your SlothBuzz token earnings on posts, and allows our curator to get a quicker look at all the #slothbuzz content.

Currently, we have no developer who can build a better site, nor the funds to invest in that regard. We'll continue to look for ways to improve, but as one little sloth, it's a lot of work to keep growing a community, especially as Hive overall seems to be waning.

Thanks for your feedback, the buzz goes on!

Shouldn't matter much what any of the rest of us think, it's if you still have the motivation and ambition required to weather the proverbial storm.

You're right, it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks, as long as we can continue putting one slothly foot in front of the other to keep the buzz alive!

We appriciate the responses all the same, shows there is still some buzz on Hive and it's worth clinging on to! Even if we're only a little sloth in the madness of Hive!
