Hey, Alessandra!
It was awesome to meet you in Hamburg and to have a nice chat IRL! It is different when we are talking face to face than behind the keyboard, but after every real-life meetup, it becomes easier... Probably because we are expecting the next meetup by imagining Hivians in our heads... 😃

I found that the longer they’ve been on Hive, the longer they are likely to stay on Hive and be part of its story.

This is a great observation! I can confirm that your assumption is true! The thing is in attracting other people that are like ourselves, and luckily, we have plenty of them on HIVE... I can say that I found a couple of new Hivians in Hamburg (wink-wink, nudge-nudge 😃) that I have added to my "collection"... As that "friend collection" grows, it is harder and harder to "quit" HIVE!!!

I'm happy to hear that you will re-activate your HIVE engagement and spread more posts around! 🙂
