Hi Tengolotodo!
I had fun reading your anecdotes of what you got about Hive on the net, I knew about this platform from a friend because she sent me her posts, and once she showed me her Wallet I could believe the honesty so I was encouraged, then entering and seeing quality posts makes me see the good of it all even though the rewards sometimes are not the best.
I particularly think that most of the users of this blockchain reflect us more as employees than as owners of a company, let me explain better; we expect to be voted only to get paid later and what do we do for hive? do we invest? do we delegate? do we do good marketing in the other networks of Web 2 for example?
When I make a post I promote it on X (Twitter), Instagram, and even TikTok and I've seen hivers on those last two networks but posting photos or personal stuff and none of their content on Web 3.
As long as we continue with that mentality and no one “designs” something cool, we will continue to be a small company in a small town in a far, far away country and the big investors will not come.
Enjoy your trip on the cruise very much, they are unique experiences! Congratulations and may prosperity follow in your paths!
I apologize for any mistakes, my native language is Spanish so I translated it Deepl.
