My pleasure! I appreciate that. Hive has become such a big part of my life in the last, soon-to-be, nine years. My days of being a regularly trending author on here seem to be behind me now but Hive still really means a lot to me. I've seen it at its worst and at its best—how it can change lives for the better. A lot of us who've been around for a while can see Hive's untapped/underutilized potential and that can be frustrating sometimes. For all of the benefits that decentralization affords sometimes lack of an agreement of a cohesive vision of the future is its Achilles heel.
As a reader I share all four of those metrics with you. There are certain authors on Hive that I really enjoy reading and try to support as much as I can (@zirochka, @honeydue, @meesterboom, @bozz, @nancybriti1, @dbooster, and many more).
Thank you very much for your support, Eric. I really appreciate it. I think beyond the financial incentive we may have at Hive, it encourages us to do what we love here: writing, crafting, reviewing. Hive is a museum where you can exhibit what you do. Not to mention, there is the opportunity to meet people from other latitudes, talented, with whom you share interests and who become your friends and even family. I value those connections very much. A hug for you

Thanks for the suggestions, I was following a large number of these names already, but a few, I was not :) I've added them to my list.
I don't even think that there's a cohesive vision at any real organisation, and it could be argued that the disorganisation is what inevitably leads to progress.
If everyone blindly followed the same goal, that is the only outcome that would be achieved. If numerous people have different goals, then well, perhaps one, or many of them would be achieved.
But the problem lies (in traditional places as well) - where multiple people are working toward the same goal in isolation of one another.
