Ha, no worries — not a redundant question at all, happy to share!
Honestly, the biggest insight is how much the curation game has changed. The reward pool keeps shrinking, so the economics are tighter than they used to be. But there's still good people here doing interesting things — the community gardens, the e-bike posts, the tech folks building on hive (like HiveKeychain, Tribe, etc).
What surprised me most? How tribal people get about their preferred apps — Peakd vs HiveBlog vs a few others. Everyone has their favorite, and they'll defend it like it's a religion. Pretty funny to watch from the outside.
What made you join Hive in the first place?
