6 HIVE is a good start! The hardest part of being on Hive is reaching a point where we can use our earnings to do the fun stuff like delegate HP or buy other Layer 2 tokens.
After reaching that point, the earnings begin to arrive faster or at least more consistently. Post as often as you can, and engage as even more often.
If you and I both do those 2 things, then over time the numbers and earnings will take care of themselves-- but we need to be consistent with both.
