It is a website built on Hive blockchain, and it is a proof of stake, so others with stake vote and earnings are split.
Some people make quite a handsome amounts, while others near nothing, so a tribal system.
If you know about it, what is your opinion or experience?
I’ve seen this one posted on the Reddit alternative sub on Reddit I’ve checked it out a few times I’ve checked it out a few times. The reason why I didn’t bother making an account on this one is because they don’t have an Android app at least that I know of and that’s my number one thing right there when it comes to Reddit alternatives. If there’s no Android mobile app I don’t bother.
Also, not all, but most social networks that give financial incentives, in my opinion, come off gimmicky.
I’ll use steemit as an example. That is like the most mentioned reddit alternative before the Exodus.
Steemit does the same with Bitcoin. But now, every post is someone begging for money asking for tips.
There’s nothing recent in english. NOSTR is different in the sense that you can tell it’s more legitimate. Jack Dorsey (not saying it like he’s the shit or anything)
Is reputable I GUESS? People know who he is. And even if you don’t, just say that’s the guy who made Twitter, and then ppl know.
This site and steemit, and some others don’t have that ‘face’ for reference I guess.
Yeah I think this is the issue with financial incentives for content, people stop posting content because it interests them and start chasing the incentives.
I think so too
Peakd is part of a Hive blockchain and Hive mobile app is Ecency. https://ecency.com/ Steemit is what’s left after users who built it left and created Hive. There is little to no posts in English because a rich guy who bought a premine is from Korea. The reason why Peakd or Hive is not popular is because ordinary people use and build on it. That’s why Nostr seems to have a few people who mostly just rotate around same people and most of the topics gravitate towards Nostr and few devs, and Hive to me looks like an entire town with a big list of topics. I don’t say one is better than the other, my blog has Nostr scripts on it, there is a possibility to make the same with Hive, but it is more complicated system than Nostr.
That’s true. I did notice that peakeds communities have more engagement compared to nostr. I wonder if peaked has it setup to where community post only show in the communities and not also the feed. I wonder if that helps
Yes, a community account is made in a completely different way than an ordinary account and has two feeds, one is for an account itself and another for a community submitted posts to that community. It is cool because it makes a community a separate entity. Now, if a post submitted is in a wrong community or against guidelines, a mod or admin can remove it from their feed but a post remains published under an account who submitted it, so this process doesn’t affect content being hosted, just being on their feed. Also, all edits or even a deletion is visible with all previous iterations visible on blockchain, which makes content really hard to manipulate or hide.
There is a lot of engagement and they have hundreds communities all different, so it’s not all crypto this and crypto that.
Additionally there are frontends that feature different topics, for example they have Liketu for photos and Leofinance for business and money. I also found Splintertalk for gaming.
Oh ok so they have some mobile apps
It is to be expected that after so many years they developed apps and have functioning projects, otherwise unmaintained blockchains just fade away.
Yea it’s sucky when they don’t update or up keep the apps too
