Why r u posting using hivepostify if u can post using peakd without giving hivepostify a 10% cut?
Why give hivepostify 10%? We have other frontends too.

Hi @dlmmqb,@lovesniper,@livinguktaiwan and community,
Thank you for bringing up this concern. Transparency is important, and you deserve a full explanation.
HivePostify provides 95% free Hive accounts to new users. This means:
• We pay for the Hive account creation fee
• We cover all server and hosting costs
• We handle platform maintenance and development
• New users pay nothing to get started
The 10% beneficiary is the only way we recover these costs. We receive no HDF funding or outside support. Without this small cut, we cannot keep the platform running and continue onboarding new users for free.
We are still in our early stage and working hard to grow. As we expand, our goal is to lower this cost even more.
We agree that new users should be informed about this from the beginning, and we will improve that communication moving forward. Thank you for promoting transparency.

Did u told the people u invited about peakd, ecency or hive.blog? About how all of this works? Your onboarded users complain about u time to time for teaching half knowledge.
The issue is, the way onboarding works behind the scenes... The way it's explained, implemented and how users r misinformed intentionally
Hi @dlmmqb,
Thank you for being straightforward. You are correct, and I appreciate your honesty.
You made a valid point about having partial knowledge. I want to be clear: we have been teaching users how to use HivePostify, but we haven't explained the broader Hive ecosystem well enough. We need to clarify how Hive works, what PeakD and Ecency are, and how voting, curation, and resource credits operate. I fully acknowledge this gap.
Here is what I am committing to:
We are redesigning our onboarding emails starting today. In the future, every new user will receive a clear explanation of the 10% beneficiary, what it funds, and why it exists. That transparency should have been there from the beginning.
I also want to clarify something: we are not starting from scratch on education. We have already created a -+75% complete Hive guide for our users that covers how the blockchain works, voting, powering up, resource credits, and more. We will finish the remaining -+25% soon. Additionally, we are working on a video guide to make it easier for new users to understand. This is not just a plan; it is already happening.
We are also working to improve content quality standards across the board. Some users still make mistakes, but we are seeing real progress and will keep pushing for improvement.
Regarding other frontends, I want to be completely clear about our stance. We will never tell a user who is already on HivePostify to use PeakD, Ecency, or Hive.blog. If we wanted to direct users there, we would not have built HivePostify in the first place. However, we will not block or discourage anyone from exploring other frontends. Users are welcome to join HivePostify from another platform. If someone on HivePostify wants to explore elsewhere, that is their choice, and we respect that. We simply do not actively direct users in either direction.
About your offer I would genuinely appreciate your involvement. I am formally inviting you to be a moderator in the HivePostify community. If any user seems misinformed or posts low-quality content, you will have full authority to act. Your experience and standards are exactly what our community needs.
If it’s easier, I would love to continue this conversation directly on Discord @ aftabirshad . It would be much simpler to discuss the guide, moderation, and anything else you want to bring up. Please feel free to reach out to me there anytime.
I have always valued your perspective. You hold this ecosystem to a high standard, and that is important. I hope we can collaborate rather than work against each other.
Thank you for not giving up on bringing these issues to light. It makes the platform better.
Respectfully,
Aftab Irshad, Founder, HivePostify.cloud

Thank you for your feedback.
I want to improve. If there are specific users who felt misled, please let me know so I can address it directly.
To clarify, when accounts are created through DBuzz and posts are made on Hive.blog, a 5% beneficiary goes to DBuzz. This is not unique; many other projects in the Hive ecosystem also use beneficiaries for their services.

If you want to do this, create a new account from DBuzz and post from Hive.blog. This will apply five percent.
We are still learning, and support is important at this stage. I kindly ask that this not be seen as negative or misunderstood.
I genuinely want to learn, improve, and grow positively within the community.
