RE: I am another person now

It doesn't matter how old you are…what matters is that you realize you need to make some changes in your life and also in your mind. A lot of us know it's time to make some changes but we don't do anything, only dwelling on how life could be better. But taking a step means you're doing it, and that is what really counts. Oh, and congratulations on doing 25 push-ups. That is 22 more than I can do 😂

P.S. Can I ask why you think Hive has no audience and is going down? I never see Hive that way… it's a safe place for writing, and thereis an audience that reads our posts and also contributes great content to read…but yeah, that is my point of view 🤔

Can I ask why you think Hive has no audience and is going down?

Well, the context is I've been here ten years. I've seen this place climb to its highest highs, and I'd say in terms of traffic and economy, we're at its lowest since I joined in 2016.

There used to be a LOT of entrepreneurial ideas, a lot of heated passionate debates about the best way to run things democratically and so forth. There were huge whales coming in pumping and dumping like nobody's business, it was all exciting times.

Now it's just... well, look at the price chart. It hasn't reacted to a single thing despite the entire world of crypto and fiat going bonkers in recent years.

There was a time I actually got a bit anxious about the potential of this place blowing up so huge that the audience would dominate and I would simply vanish, as influencers sink millions into it, and their fans, witnesses get dominated by the wealthy elites and so on.

Now, I have no such concerns lol - which don't get me wrong, is nice. Keeping is as a warm little community is why I'm here. But at the same time, It's a shame its immense potential was never realised, and it's long time to give up on thinking it ever will!

Oh, okay, now I understand what you meant. My husband explained a lot about this to me, but honestly, I wasn't interested in all the witness and whales situation, pumping and dumping, who has control over it, if it is even a democracy, and so on…My husband knew better than to push me because I might have stopped writing, and I don't want that. I mean, after 8 years on Hive, there’s already been a lot of drama, but what could someone like me do? Nothing. So, I will keep writing. It helped me a lot with my mind and health, and that's important to me. It's just... maybe it would be smart for some of the bigger players here to invest money into promoting the platform. I can only promote it with words. 😂 But…hmmm…I never thought in this way that if the platform is going big, my content and I would vanish… You put that in my head now! 😂😂😂

Needed a second reply so I could say, Three push-ups! Congrats! That's half-way to 6! I bet you could get there in a few days ;)

You will definitely see an article about this if I succeed. 😂😂
