Hive

Pros: Good dApps and big community. Hive is a hard fork of Steemit about 2 or 3 years ago. They wanted to do it differently, they ended up doing the same...

Cons: A small circle of investors control the ecosystem with a downvote button, causing massive damage to the victim, once it is used. The general atmosphere there is extremely toxic.

Overall: It is a huge shame, that they are keeping their downvote button. My presumption is, that this could be the end of the platform...

Pros: I consider that I have been fortunate to belong to Hive,
at a time when I was culminating my work as a professor at the University.

I like it, because it is decentralized, and I have freedom to publish, it is reliable and allows me to monetize my content.
I learn every day to manage and exchange cryptocurrencies.
I love hive because I have solved many economic situations and made new friends.

I have learned and continue to learn more and more. I have published in hive niches , according to my preferences,
I have participated in contests and initiatives programmed by the communities and some users.

Cons: I have found it difficult to manage the translator and proofreading of my content, as my native language is Spanish.

Overall: My experience.
As for my experience in general, I feel that since I joined this platform, my life has changed a lot. Now I take the hive as a real job, since my day to day is focused on creating content,
taking pictures, looking for contests, but not only in terms of monetization, it is simply that I feel very useful,
that I have found the ideal place, where I do what I like the most in life, which is writing,
and many other activities such as communicating with people from all over the planet, even with a translator.
I only wish that the hive continues to grow.

Pros: - Low gas fee
- Fast transactions
- Very easy to remember account/address
- Easy manage the access to different projects with one keychain

Cons: - now the pairs that Hive can be traded are not as many as other crypto coins.
- Exchange loses from local currency to Hive exchange.

Overall: I'm a very new people to Blockchain. Hive is my first one , and very easy for me to get in and use it.

Overall I'm pretty satisfied with Hive blockchain.

Pros: The biggest advantage is the independence of your blog from the domain operator, provider, any person who may disappear, die, go bankrupt, or get bored with running a business. Your texts are saved on the blockchain. Second pro: many language communities - I write in Polish. The third issue is an interesting opportunity to invest intellectual capital and a good opportunity to learn cryptocurrency mechanisms.

Cons: Hive has no particular cons. It's completely different from centralized social media, so it can be a bit confusing at first, but the community is very helpful for new users.

Overall: If you are a blogger, you will be 100% satisfied. If you just want to yank some cryptocurrency for yourself by cheating or publishing plagiarism, it will only work in the very short term, and then you'll be whining elsewhere on the web that Hive is so bad. ;)

Pros: The Hive was my introduction to the blockchain. I admit I was overwhelmed at first. But there were lots of helpful people who posted great information that got me going. Now there are even more helpful people and I keep learning more and more. Where else could I earn by just posting, commenting, playing games, and many other activities? Great communities on the Hive.

Cons: Takes a little getting used to how to navigate. Once you have that down there are no cons.

Overall: I would encourage everyone to join the Hive today. Earn while you play. Join any of the communities to make new friends.

Pros: A great social network that rewards the effort and offers information on many different It is a social network where you can produce original content without hesitation.

Cons: I haven't seen a negative aspect that has caught my attention so far. It meets all my needs.

Overall: A platform that I have been using for 2-3 months, I had a nice social networking experience where I can learn good information and learn about places I haven't been to improve myself when patiently continues.

Pros: I Love HIVE, I use it for everything from social media browsing, posting and earning, curating posts, to collecting airdrops. Hive is super fast, unlike ETHER, a HIVE transaction is always free, and always 3 seconds to confirm. There is DeFi, Hive-Engine side chain tokens, and even HIVE dollars where you can earn 20% on the stable coin! HIVE is the best, I was just thinking about how much better it is than all other crypto coins because of all the utility it brings me every day!

Cons: There is nothing I don't like about it besides the fact that it isn't in every household in America yet. lol

Overall: Overall I am super excited about HIVE every single day. I've been using it for years now, and it never lets me down.

Pros: Censorship resistant, free transactions, NFTs, games, communities, earn crypto for blogging! There are endless things that can be done with Hive. The sky is the limit.

Cons: Not enough has been done to make Hive known to the greater public.

Overall: The heart of Hive is its community of users, witnesses and developers. No other project compares! We are just looking at the tiniest tip of the iceberg for what is possible to do on Hive.

Pros: I like that I can read blogs on any topic and interact with the authors of the blogs.
I love that I can share my life, my words and my photos with the communities and get feedback.

Cons: I have never been on anything other than Facebook before so there are no cons for me at this stage.

Overall: I'm finding it quite easy to navigate and am finding communities very open to my blogs. I feel encouraged to keep writing by the feedback fellow hivers give me. I also like that I'm actually earning money just by sharing the dream life I'm living.

Pros: Real money for writing, you can spend your time with a great community, win votes, join contests, it's very fun.

Cons: None. This social media doesn't have any cons, it's perfect.

Overall: Hive is the best thing to happen to me in life. I earn a lot of money just spending my time here, other social networks are just fun but here in Hive its fun and money.

Pros: The pros of this social media are:
We can earn from this.
We can write whatever we want
Nobody can have authority over us
Many Communities we can be a part of
Great place to enhance your writing, photography, gaming, and other skills.

Cons: Sometimes you work hard but you can't get the upvote.

Overall: Overall I like the performance of this platform, but to be honest it is hard for a newcomer to make his place to get some good upvotes.

Pros: Great platform for blogging and creative writing;
No nonsense accepted here, true talent is appreciated here;
Easy to handle wallet stuff;
Stable coin with 20%APR;
Sufficient income source by writing blogs or investing;
Very helpful communities and the members of its as well;
Just to write a few.

Cons: It's a tough thing to find a cons. But I think too many rules regulation which make a bit hard for new users.

Overall: Hive is my favourite and there are many reasons behind it. It is really user friendly, and it is very decorated as the rules regulation are very strict. That's the reason no nonsense is seen here and the ecosystem is balanced. I have found the communities and the users are very helpful to lift you up if you make good contents. Also the authors regulate every single post -for everyone, new or old members; which encourages everyone to engage and to post. One can have a very sufficient income by simply writing blogs at any of his/her favourite topic. It's providing 20% APR which is really beneficiary for users. And of course it is a web3.0. The best one ever on blockchain.

Pros: - reward structure
- decentralization
- own wallet with stable coin on 1st layer
- second layer with many projects
- play to earn games
- community
- feeless transactions

Cons: - hard to get started, it's a bit overwhelming first days to week
- make sure you understand what's at stake and secure your account properly as you're responsible for your funds.

Overall: Really amazing experience with a great community and many projects and opportunities. Got started through Splinterlands and quickly discovered the hive-engine and all else Hive has to offer (so curious to it all I kind of overwhelmed my self, could maybe have taken it slower). Been here little over a year now and still enjoying it daily, recommended!

Pros: -Peakd is a great platform to monetize your experience
-Great gaming communities
-$PIZZA!!!!
-A lot of amazing games on the horizon, and some staples that have been doing work for years now (splinterlands, risingstars)

Cons: -Onboarding
-Transferring of funds can prove difficult for someone new to crypto

Overall: If you are a creative writer, gamer, food blogger, what ever your passion is, there is a community for you on HIVE. And why not get paid to share your content and experiences!

Pros: Hive is a great window of expression and personal growth in all aspects. Being able to count on a large number of niche communities opens up a great window of opportunity. The economic ecosystem is built to offer a great diversity of monetization and income options through very functional dapps. The play to earn gaming world is an opportunity not to be missed.

Cons: Perhaps the medium technical concept to join and use all the available options is a drawback, but it can be overcome with the great help you get from all the experienced users.

Overall: In general, Hive is fantastic. Its main currency maintains a good growth performance and its stable currency, is one of the best. This is a unique and super cool world, I love it.

Pros: Loads of active developers and dapps
Loads of front ends to choose from.
Generally a great community.

Cons: Steep learning curve.
Some very large whales distribution could be better.

Overall: Hive is great. It's going strong, and there is tons of development going on.
I've made a great deal of my wealth simply posting on Hive.

Pros: You own your account, community, followers list, content and digital economy outside of the platforms. You can tip hive content using lightening network. The governance is superior as it has a stake based community voting system for the top 20 witnesses. You can spin up your own platform easily.

Cons: Tokenisation and sign up process are not great yet. These are both being solved by SPK.network with honeycomb software for tokenisation and ceramic light accounts for easy off chain sign ups where you can link to other blockchain Accounts

Overall: Excellent. Easy to build dapps, easy to use most features as a user. You own your account outright and can take ur followers and community with you anywhere that has Hive integrated. True web3. No ICO, no owners, no pre-seed, no company, no CEO.

Pros: Total autonomy to publish content and get rewards for them with the only limit of originality.
Fight against plagiarism.
Numerous decentralized frontends and applications.
A community in continuous growth.
Rewards appropriate to the quality of the content.

Cons: The value of the token is too unstable, although this is still a characteristic of cryptocurrencies.
Not all exchanges accept the HIVE at the moment of selling it and this generates to transfer it to another cryptocurrency and lose a lot in commissions.
There is a lack of curators with more voting power, it is usual to see a post with many votes and little reward and another post with few votes and a very high reward.

Overall: All the premises are in place for HIVE to be the platform of the future.

The new projects (Larynx, Ragnarok, etc) with their Claim Drop are consolidating the structure of the platform to diversify it in the NFT and gaming market among others.

Pros: I like the community and the whole idea of free speech. Everyone can be a journalist and an expert in their field. Hive is just connecting those who are connecting non-biased articles with readers. The biggest plus is that you get a reward for that and you share rewards with others.

Cons: I didn't like some rules about copywriting or spamming. But I am sure they are making more good than bad. Especially when the users are rising weekly. There could be more curators.

Overall: I simply love it. Hive can bring independence to many content creators. I believe I will be one of them and one day I will have the power to help others to show their work and be rewarded.

Pros: In the panorama of blockchain projects Hive is more unique than rare because it has peculiarities that no other project has:
Hive is very fast: 3 second block speeds.
Hive is completely decentralized
Hive has no transaction costs
Hive has many utilities and functionalities (blogging, gaming, defi,...)
Hive is a large and growing ecosystem of projects and sites and Splinterlands is an example and is also one of the most successful gaming projects built on Hive's blockchain.
Hive has no owners but has a great and beautiful community.
I've been an active user on Hive for over 3 years and Hive is definitely my favorite blockchain project.

Cons: A new user may have difficulties at the beginning to understand the various dynamics of the platform (wallet and tokens, front-ends, power up, ...) but these difficulties are easily overcome thanks to the support of the many users and communities of Hive that are always ready to help a new user.

Overall: Hive has become part of my life for more than 3 years now and a good part of my free time is spent playing blockchain-based games like Splinterlands and Rising Star, writing content and interacting with other users and these are all activities I enjoy doing.
There are aspects that can be improved but Hive is definitely my favorite blockchain project!
