I think it's because the dolphins know each other, follow each others, and friends with each other, that's why it is very, very easy for them to engage with each other. They all have weathered the storm together on Steem and now on Hive. Because they have been interacting with each other for a few years now, it's more like they have known each other beyond virtually. Looking at them, they seem to be already like a family to me.
I have always believe that having friends here on Hive will make you stay. But it is very difficult to have one, or enter a group/community that each have its set of own rules and regulations, and are thriving on their own without you. So whether you are in there are not, they will all continue the lives they live.
I am speaking as a minnow. All my friends have left the platform, because of different personal reasons, and because they can't see "life" here. Everyone has their own lives. It's hard to get in.
I don't even know why I stayed. Maybe because I love to speak out my mind, and this is my way out. And maybe because somehow I get at least some of the dolphin's and orca's attention, so it moves me to get going.
It's not about dolphins or orca, its about making that connection by talking to the author about it.
Not really, friend doe snot means that you both should upvote each other, friends out here also means if you are interacting with that person regularly.
If you are creating content, you will get the attention no matter what is your status.
Yes, it's not about being an orca or a dolphin, what I mean is, because friendship is already established between them, the flow of conversation is very fluid. So they can banter and exchange lengthy conversations. But a new comer can never have that same kind of conversation. Hence, this also can affect the data being considered by @abh12345.
Please don't get me wrong @codingdefined. I am just stating an honest opinion and this is what I've experienced.
I am doing my best to create good content blog, but I don't get the attention everytime. And that's OK. Perhaps my best wasn't good enough, and I still have so much to learn to catch other's attention. However, when I see other's effortless post but they are well received, it is sometimes discouraging.
But that is not the point. What I am pointing out is that it is easy for the dolphins to have such great data because of the friendship and interaction that has build up through the years. Minnows still have so much to do in order to achieve that. And when they do, when they have established friendship, before they know it, they have grown to be dolphins themselves! 😁😜
That's true, but again all the dolphis and orca were minnows one day and how they have started just by casually starting the conversation. I hope everyone can do it, you reply tp the same author 10 times, I am damn sure he/she will reply you 5 times atleast.
Its not about getting ou wrong, its about making everyone aware that how this works, overnight no one will become star, we need to put effort initially, and thus when the effort is visible you will get rewards for your content. Just like here, you have started te conversation and thus this is how we can start talking more, one conversation starter is rquired to talk more.
Hahaha! 😂 You are so right! 😜 We really need to put effort to build friendship, and initiate conversation. As they say, 'to be a friend, be one.' 😍
That's absolutely correct
It sounds like you, as with many others, just stuck at it long enough to get noticed -it's tough for a while, but this 'while' can be shortened if you are getting involved in commentary, I think.
Yes, you have me there! I will also do my best to engage and comment as well. 😍
