There are some blockchain platforms which have social media features (such as Arweave) where people must pay tokens (not just something similar to Resource Credits that regenerate for free over time) to publish posts or comments there, and there is no way to earn directly from content there (while there are workarounds such as putting cryptocurrency wallet addresses there for donations). π€ I would like to see Hive provide decentralized image (and other file type) hosting though (which the SPK network is already testing but has been taking quite a long time). π€

I have no idea why people use frameworks like that. It seems like far more hassle than it's worth to me. I can't wait for the SPK network either, and yes, it's been taking forever indeed. πππβ¨π€

I tried to search for the official SPK (based on #Honeycomb) website, but found none. π€― It was previously hosted on https://spk.dlux.io, where the website of the primary domain https://dlux.io removed (all) references to the Hive blockchain. π€―

Well that's unfortunate indeed, and it does not bode well. πππβ¨π€

I really think that such Hive Proposals which ask for hundreds of dollars per day should at least have an official website (that is independent of any other project) !INDEED. π§ββοΈπ€―

That's great, but I would be happy with a team that were very open and communicative about what they're doing, even if they didn't have an official website, especially if they're making good progress to boot. πππβ¨π€

An official post here on Hive for a Hive project whose owner (or team members) communicate actively (and kindly) with people on Hive would indeed be at least as good as having an official website. π§ββοΈπ€

I'd say that it would be more useful, since many Hivers don't even visit dev sites. πππβ¨π€

The advantage of certain other blockchain platforms (such as #Arweave) is that any type of media (even videos and apps themselves) can be put directly onto the blockchain, though every megabyte costs a certain amount of tokens (depending on network conditions). πΈπ€

How on earth do they store media directly on the blockchain? That seems horribly inefficient. πππβ¨π€

I haven't searched about them in detail, but I found out that publishing even a very short comment there may take more than 10 minutes to get added to the blockchain, not to mention the higher fees required when more and/or bigger transactions are pending. πΈπ€―π€

Yikes, so it's inefficient, slow, and expensive...lol! I got to say that this information does not give me motivation to explore it. πππβ¨π€

I wonder what would happen if the Hive blockchain gets a fork where anyone can put a huge amount of data per post or comment (let's say up to 20 megabytes per post), provided that the Hive account has enough Resource Credits to support such transaction !INDEED. πΈπ€―π

Storing large amounts of data, especially media files, directly on the blockchain never goes well. A far better solution is to have a decentralized data layer, like Qortal has with QDN (Qortal Data Network). πππβ¨π€
