First off, I completely agree... onboarding and mobile apps are crucial for Hive's growth. Ecency is a solid start, but we need more options to make it easy for newbies to join the party.
That being said, I don't think those things alone will attract the masses to Hive. To really build momentum on this platform, we need to focus on what influencers need and where Hive can stand out. I wrote an article about this here: @zwhammer/the-secret-to-growing-the-hive-blockchain-influencers-here-s-how-hive-can-attract-them
TL;DR - we need to create tools that allow influencers to gate their content. Once we have those tools, Hive offers very interesting ways to monetize it through community tokens, NFTs, and crypto/fiat payments. This way, Hive can compete more directly with platforms like Patreon and Skillshare, and influencers will bring their audience to the platform. Over time, this creates a virtuous cycle that attracts more audience and influencers. Just my thoughts, let me know what you guys think. 🤔💡🚀
