What is the biggest challenge for Hive ?

This is a great question. I think there are three essential points:

First, we need to keep our active user base motivated. In my opinion, there's no point in looking for new people to join the network if they're just going to give up in a few months. Let anyone who's never felt like they weren't recognized cast the first stone.

Second, after taking care of our regular writer base (people who post content at least twice a week, in my opinion), we should try to increase the active user base.

Third, a complex point is the way downvotes can be used. Have you ever thought about someone downvoting you because you voted for a witness they don't like? Or because you supported a proposal they're against? Or simply because they don't like you?

Have you ever thought about "losing" 0.20 cents for each post, for example? There are people who will tell me that 0.20 more is not enough, but for us mere mortals who try to value our content little by little, it makes a difference and in the current way, this can happen

I think the biggest challenge is the userbase because our mission is to be a social media, yet we could not attract as many people as we intended to be. hhmmmm also the politics between all the whales, hahaha
!PIZZA !LUV !LOLZ

I think it's important to become most visible among other social media platforms, also it's important to attract more new users. And of course it's important to be stable and decentralized

Attracting users to a front end that has so many options is the problem for me, you need to hear about something multiple times before you jump on it, seeing so many front ends makes it difficult to pick up that repeat visitor unless they are looking for something specific

People first have to know about it. I do not recall anyone around me in real life who knows about crypto and talks about hive. :)

It is very unlikely, but if you join this platform without knowing anyone and you don't meet the right people, it is very difficult to stay on the platform.

We can also say that Trump is the biggest challenge in the whole crypto world right now XD

I would say the poor tokenomics involved with the DAO distribtutions makes holding Hive unprofitable followed by the HBD/Debt ponzi token paying 15% interest from nothing.

The biggest challenge is to be more user-friendly and to address real decentralization.

User bas is the biggest challenge in my opinion. Onboarding new users is one part and retention of existing users is second part which is very important. This should not be a come and go show. No doubt the platform has place for everyone one but people has to dig and find the right place.

User retention, I think the long term vision is essential for our survival.

User numbers and retention are the biggest and most obvious problem (or solution) for just about any community/business/whatever! 🤣

As for how we're supposed to solve that... well... clearly, the amount of DHF funds already used for failed marketing attempts over the years have shown this isn't something that will be easily tackled.

User retention. With the number of people who have opened an account on Hive and the few users that we are.

I think the biggest challenge for Hive is its price. I think it will be easier to attract people if the price is going up or is on an uptrend.. But of course, we can't control market forces.

I think creating lots of accounts and farming of tokens using those multiple accounts is a main issus in hive.

Too many factions within hive. favouritism by certain accounts is also an issue.

Apart from that, buying and selling hive is not straignt forward. You need to look at pairs on various exchanges to sell or buy.

user retention is also a concern when the price goes down or the user doesn't get the upvotes he desires.

In my opinion the biggest challenge is encouraging people to join Hive and downvoting. I don't really know why people downvote people's posts.

oh I have been missing from liotes for some weeks.

the biggest challenge? Userbase. I think we are losing it, dropping, not increasing

Personally, the awareness of hive is very low and also the price of it. If able to move the price up a little and more people start knowing, then hive will be able to progress a little more.

I think there are plenty of challenges for Hive. To me the biggest one for the whole ecosystem is ... What is its identity .. What actually is Hive? Explaining that is not easy.

The biggest challenge for Hive is making Hive more search engine-friendly. There are many great articles and valuable knowledge within Hive, but they are often hard to find for outsiders because they don't appear in Google search results or other search engines. If Hive can become more SEO-friendly, it will attract many new users. That's what I think.

To me one of the biggest challenge is retaining users, you brought in someone on hive and the person is experiencing downvote, you who brought the person is also experiencing consistent downvote without any reason
The growth will be stagnant because,no motivation

Attracting more users and keeping them active. With that in mind, it's interesting that we don't like marketing proposals very much. It is true, they can be criticized, but still... Also to note that many have tried guerilla marketing over time... It wasn't very successful for Hive, either because they didn't know how to do it effectively (not that I do), or because we don't have the products to attract the people with via such a marketing strategy.

My thinking is slightly different from what I have read.
My opinion is that Hive must survive this strange period. The big blockchains don't like it, nor do the central banks that control fiat, because things are different in Hive and they can't (hopefully) block anyone or accuse anyone of anything. And Hive has to transform a little bit in this process of survival.
And if Hive becomes strong (which I expect it will be with this VSC Network project because you can transact between currencies without fees), then they might be able to jump into the cabbage of some or all of the big players.

I believe that the biggest challenge for hive is always related to users, whether it's keeping the ones who are here, or bringing new people to get to know hive and like what can be done here, and with that creating a consistency, not just making a post and disappearing. It's complicated to integrate new people and that's certainly the biggest challenge for Hive.

Oh man!!! The biggest challenge is onboarding for sure!! Feel that in the skin!! No one gives me attention when I talk about it… they think that is a scam to good to be true!!! Onboarding real users is the biggest challenge

As mentioned by others, user base and retention. And if I may add, the lack of reliable decentralized exchange where HIVE or HBD can be traded with other off-chain assets. Leodex is there but it can be a pain when transactions get stuck and refunds take ages.

Oops this is a bit tricky, I think the challenge is to expect all people within and potential new users to behave rationally and collaborate to create a truly decentralized ecosystem. I know there is a lot of criticism on how things should be done, but the truth is that when making decisions it is very difficult for a person to think totally decentralized, I would love it to be like that, but the challenge is really to work on ourselves in order to create a really nice ecosystem. Bringing in a new user, if we ourselves do not have things clear, does not serve any purpose other than to increase the numbers minimally. So, just like in real life, the challenge is that we all try to be better people, a bit utopian after all.

Onboarding and user retention. I think we lack the users and a lot of people will disregard Hive because they don't think it ahs enough people. We need reasons to keep users around.

The biggest challenge? People and price

1. Hivers need to stay active to post our day or something else. (Hive bloggers, excluding gamers)
2. Hivers need to stay active at least in one community. (Hive bloggers and gamers)
3. Fluctuative price
   *It's because of crypto in general tho not because of the HIVE itself 😂

1 and 2 are the biggest challenge for me too as I don't have much social energy for being an introvert 😂

Attracting introverted people will be harder than extroverts to social media platforms like HIVE and with crypto, it makes people need to learn more before going into HIVE.
