RE: My Hive Report Card

Thank you for posting about my tool! In response to some of the requests:

• Word Cloud

The word cloud is something that I could test, but I think that it would be too computationally demanding to happen in the browser (all the processing for this tool happens locally on your device). I've tried to do word clouds in the past on blobs of text previously, but I have never really nailed the way to execute it. Splitting words into an array array, then grouping them (especially when you have more than a million of them for some authors) - and I'm not confident it would be reliable.

• Hive Earned

I will not be implementing this. While it is in the API response for what I am polling, I want the tool to focus on content, and to be decoupled from the reward mechanism of hive. I want people to write (and be better at writing) for the joy of writing.

There is enough evidence on chain that good posts are not adequately rewarded, and that some curators seem to take a day off everyday. The mechanism here is fundamentally broken, because a curator gets rewarded whether they upvote "good" content or not - I did prior analysis on this in the Hive Statistics community, which was the precursor to me making this tool.

• Date Selection

This is now something on my to do list :) I will see what mechanisms are available to achieve this.

• Tag Selection

I'll have to double check if that is in the end point I am querying.
