RE: Hive needs better feeds! Let’s build a custom Curation tool! (fundraiser)
Content discovery is a weak point of Hive. I think communities and tags may be the best options for now, but being able to tune those feeds might help. The requirements may differ between wanting to give out votes and actually wanting to read posts.
I do think that the massive communities are fairly useless and I tend to ignore them. I see more use in communities with a specific focus so you can get enthusiasts actually engaging with each other. They should worry less about the votes if they get value in other ways, as they would on platforms that don't pay.

Thanks for sharing your 2cents.
Tags can be nice but are also abused.
I am a bit reluctant to follow more communities because that could 'mess up' my community feed.
And 'newbies' might not have found the niche communities we're following. I still see quite some cycling blog not being posted in my Cycling Community. Either because the user doesn't know of the existence or the blog has multiple subjects, for instance a a cycling holiday post in the Worldmappin community.
And I could check the #cycling tah, but then I might want to filter out the #actifit posts (This is just an example to show a use case of the curation tool by the way).
