RE: Everybody Needs a Friend... .:. WorkerBee PH-Pool Week 274
Fantastic comment! I have to break it down and share my view...
It's odd because it signals this fear that we've got nothing worth saying (hence the need to generate content with AI, I guess). I wonder when we started thinking that. I guess there's a lot of pressure on a newbie
I wouldn't say it's just pressure on a newbie... It's a trend... People have that feeling of being powerless, as they are constantly pushed down by the media, society, etc. If you are not part of "the club", you are worthless, and your opinion is useless... I remember 3-4 years ago, here on the chain, during the C19 thing, there was a group of people talking exactly about this topic... About giving BACK POWER to the people!
Maybe the message we use to promote Hive should be less "we can pay you" and more "we want to know you".
I like that! WE WANT TO KNOW YOU! 🍻
But, I do agree with you... People need to trust each other, and that is built by sharing, not by pretending and faking...
Absolutely. I'm having the same internal debate over social media - there's a tendency to do what everyone else is doing because that must work, but then again, does anyone really need to see the same oversaturated trend rehashed yet again? Isn't it more exciting to see someone being real? I don't know about the other platforms, but on Hive, for sure.
I think we should just be ourselves, cliche though that is. I don't know about you, but I definitely didn't stay on Hive (or as it was, steem) because people were pulling at me to stay, but because I found one or two people patient enough to listen. If you ask me, that's what newbies really need.
Anyway,really enjoyed the post. Hugs to you both! :)
