The Upgrade that Hive needs should benefit those who need it most.

Portuguese version below.

The great challenge for every newcomer who arrives in Hive is finding people who value their content. There is a significant gap that separates whales from newcomers who produce quality content. To be honest, I would like to state that this problem only affects newcomers, but the truth is that it is a problem that affects most people who write good texts.

Few communities truly embrace people who are willing to do their best. Hive Learners is a great example of this. If a newcomer starts producing content through this community, they will certainly be more valued than in any other. But HL is an exception, undoubtedly, the problem of lack of visibility is one of the main issues I see on Hive.

The big rewards are usually concentrated in small groups; the same people receive good rewards daily, while newcomers rarely have the chance to have a post that reaches a $10 reward. One thing I would definitely improve on Hive is visibility for good content creators.

How would this be done?

Through a special area where newcomers would be more prominently featured. In this area, which I will call the Newbies Dashboard, content from newcomers and also from people who do not usually receive good rewards, even though they have been on Hive for some time, would be displayed. To be eligible to appear on this special dashboard, people would have to have a limit of X weekly rewards. If their weekly rewards exceed this value, they would no longer be eligible to participate in this dashboard. I think this idea would level the playing field for rewards on Hive a bit more, and whales would have the chance to discover good content creators and support a larger number of people.

To participate in this Special Dashboard, some requirements would need to be met. First, of course, original content. Second, a minimum of 500 words. The content could be posted in any community according to the theme, and, of course, the main prerequisite would be the amount of weekly rewards that person has already received. The data on weekly rewards would be disclosed, but I honestly don't know how this could be done, but surely a Dev would know how to do it.

After a while, people who started earning good rewards would no longer have this differentiated visibility. On the other hand, they would become better known and could earn good rewards even without being in that space anymore. Whales, if they wanted, could follow the path of someone they trust so that they wouldn't have to do the curation work alone. It would be a new era for Hive, where people who come here willing to truly dedicate themselves would see their efforts well rewarded from the start, and this would make them stay. Because we know how rarely people stay on Hive when they arrive. I'm sure you've invited someone who made two or three posts and then gave up because they didn't see a future in Hive. This happens because there is no special attention to those coming from WEB 2.

People who come to Hive want to see something different from what they are used to. Before they arrive here, they hear about rewards for content production. Imagine how frustrating it must be to make your first posts and have no visibility at all? I believe that for Hive to grow, it needs to attract as many users as possible, but there needs to be special attention to users who are always arriving and not being stimulated enough to stay. I think my idea of an upgrade would be an interesting tool to fix this.

O grande desafio para todo novato que chega na Hive é encontrar pessoas que valorizem seu conteúdo. Existe um grande abismo que separa baleias de novatos que produzem conteúdo de qualidade. Sendo sincera, eu gostaria de afirmar que esse problema atinge apenas os novatos, mas a verdade é que é um problema que atinge a maioria das pessoas que escrevem bons textos.

Poucas comunidades abraçam de fato pessoas que estão dispostas a darem o seu melhor. Hive Learners é um ótimo exemplo disso. Se um novato começa a produzir conteúdo através desta comunidade ele certamente será mais valorizado do que em qualquer outra. Mas HL é uma exceção, sem dúvida o problema da falta de visibilidade é um dos principais que enxergo na Hive.

As grandes recompensas estão normalmente concentradas em pequenos grupos, as mesmas pessoas recebem boas recompensas diariamente, enquanto pessoas novas raramente tem a chance de ter um post que chegue à recompensa de 10 dólares. Uma coisa que eu definitivamente melhoraria na Hive, é a visibilidade para bons criadores de conteúdo.

Como isso seria feito?

Através de um campo especial onde novatos seriam mais evidenciados. Nessa área que chamarei de Dashboard dos Newbies, seria exposto conteúdos de novatos e também de pessoas que não costumam receber boas recompensas por mais que estejam na Hive há algum tempo. Para ser apto a aparecer nesse dashboard especial, as pessoas teriam que ter um limite de X recompensas semanais. Caso suas recompensas semanais ultrapassem esse valor, ela não estaria mais apta a participar desse dashboard. Penso que essa ideia igualaria um pouco mais o jogo das recompensas na Hive, além disso, as baleias teriam chance de conhecer bons criadores de conteúdo e dessa forma apoiar uma maior quantidade de pessoas.

Para participar desse Dashboard Especial, seria necessário cumprir alguns requisitos. Primeiro, obviamente, texto original. Segundo, texto de no mínimo 500 palavras. O Conteúdo poderia ser postado em qualquer comunidade de acordo com o tema, e claro, o pré requisito principal seria a quantidade de recompensas semanais que aquela pessoa já recebe. Os dados das recompensas semanais seriam expostos, mas eu sinceramente não sei como isso poderia ser feito, mas com certeza algum Dev saberia como fazer.

Depois de um tempo, as pessoas que passassem a ganhar boas recompensas não teriam mais essa visibilidade diferenciada, por outro lado, ela se tornaria mais conhecida e poderia ganhar boas recompensas mesmo não estando mais nesse espaço. As baleias, se quisessem, poderiam seguir a trilha de alguém de sua confiança para que não tivesse que ficar com o trabalho de curadoria sozinho. Seria uma nova era para Hive, em que as pessoas que chegassem aqui dispostas a realmente se dedicar veriam seus esforços serem bem recompensados logo no início e isso as fariam permanecer. Porque sabemos como dificilmente as pessoas permanecem na Hive quando chegam. Tenho certeza que você já convidou alguém que fez dois ou três posts e depois desistiu porque não viu futuro na Hive. Isso acontece porque não há uma atenção especial a quem vem da WEB 2.

As pessoas que vem para a Hive, querem ver algo diferente do qual estão acostumadas. Elas antes de chegarem aqui ouvem falar de recompensas por produção de conteúdo. Imaginem o quanto deve ser frustrante fazer seus primeiros posts e não ter visibilidade nenhuma? Acredito que para a Hive crescer ela precisa conquistar o maior número de usuários possível, mas é preciso que haja uma atenção especial para usuários que estão sempre chegando e não estão sendo estimulados o suficiente para ficarem, penso que a minha ideia de upgrade seria uma ferramente interessante para consertar isso.
