I started as a 1, but I mostly identify myself as a 3 now that I'm retired. But I'm mostly interested in monetised evergreen / perpetual content. With Hive author and curation rewards being a welcome extra. Now, I've proved that the concept is sound as shown by the link to my blog in my profile. But I haven't maintained the focused, niche content generation that this option requires.
Anyway, just today, I started a better version of my niche blog generation app. So I am hoping to have the mix of a better app and more content soon. Though my track record for developing this is not great!
