I think "Yes please!". I love what the #threads team have done. The way it works is quite neat too using comments rather than a full post. It would be great to combine the excellence of the Threads micro-blogging functionality into my favourite Hive front end #Ecency
I would use it to post a few random thoughts, views, pictures that were interesting to me during the day and I felt may be of interest to others. I would also use it as a means to hopefully attract more people to Hive. The key barrier to entry being usability.
Of course, tags help and on a Micro-blogging system global, regional and of interest trending tags would be key. Users need to easily find content that is of interest to them. Otherwise, it is just noise and I expect some people already see Hive like that as a newbie, and you see the stream of new posts, you will think what the hell is this?
Entry barriers should be much lower, we have tried to contribute and do our part to improve. Still there are a lot more things we can and will do to make it easier. Educational content and easy to learn about bits about Ecency and Hive is essential, this is where we are going to do more work this year.
Perhaps an inbuilt "tip of the day" feature in the Ecency app. That would provide some bitesized learning for newbies. You could even use som gasification so that they can earn some points for completing some newbie tasks.
Good idea, ultimately we have to make sure we can scale it.
I like this idea.
