One of the projects listed in the proposal from @peak.open team is to create a site built on Hive that is customizable. We will be pulling on our experience building peakd.com to build something that could be very interesting for users.
VOTE HERE: https://peakd.com/me/proposals/peakd
We suspect the main usages will be:
- Businesses (Large and small)
- Non-profits
- Dedicated interest groups
- Popular writers or artists that want their OWN space.
- You?
FEEDBACK
We are curious what you would envision being some of the popular use cases of a project like this? They will have access to custom URL, custom layout, custom settings.
CUSTOM SETTINGS
There may be Hive/Peakd features that these companies or writers aren't in need of. Or they can still choose to include them. They can decide how socially connected their website or not. Maybe for them they just want a website for their content backed by blockchain technology.
They may not want:
- Reward pool voting
- Hive governance links
- Badges
- Snaps
- Page Views or Votes
- Wallet
- Hive stats (RC, KE, REP, Voting mana, etc)
- Separate pages for Replies, comments, subscriptions, map view etc
Example: A company (like even a local restaurant) may love the permanence of the blockchain and hopefully the ease of setting up we can create and they may love that when they write content for their company it goes on to several different social sites like peakd.com, ecency.com, hive.blog and others and Hive users can interact through all these locations. However when they send their own users and viewers to view their posts or they link on Google Maps they may not want some high level Hive features there like votes and reward pool and downvotes. They may not want the distractions of having hive governance stuff on the same site. They could opt to just turn off some of that stuff on their custom site. Obviously Hive users will still have access to them on all those other sites. Hive could still get their content and perhaps they bring new users as well.
MORE FEEDBACK
We want to know not just what customization you want in the look of the site but also in the customizable settings that you think small companies, groups or even popular writers may want. How would you see this open source project being utilized by users and companies?

Very good, I think this is a very important step for Hive, one that I have been hoping for for a long time. I am convinced that companies are important for Hive so that there are more users and more activity here.
And in some countries, there are laws that require companies to provide certain information, such as an imprint. Companies could then do this in the future, as has long been possible on SM.
For companies, Hive could be an inexpensive advertising platform, allowing them to reach customers with a small investment and offering them the opportunity to reward them, e.g., for posts/comments about the company.
That would be a big win for Hive.
I'm excited to see how it's implemented and hope it will be implemented across all front ends.

Being able to host data on Hive is cool as you are not relying on some service that may shut down or change the rules. We need to sell that feature more. This is sounding like a neat project.
Imagine peakd offering this and offering a custom domain as well. For example that Company pay (in HBD or USE transfer) to peakd for host their custom page under the
whareverthenamecompanyis.com
Web domain.

Still leading the way in the realm of innovations in this ecosystem, especially in the social media department. Keep up the excellent work.
Sounds very original, I will vote when I get in!
It would be simply awesome if I could make landing page (site) for music within hive environment.
Voted! I will be interested in the Non-profit site.
Have you had a chance to take a look at our proposal? We would love your support as we are very close to completing the funding round. Please consider it here: https://peakd.com/me/proposals/346
That sounds great especially for business purposes! I would definitely use it!
I like it. I think it can be a very important project and with a large percentage of use.
I agree with this very important project. I will vote.
I can imagine student orgs, hobby clubs, or even content creators my age using this to build their own space without all the extra Hive features that might confuse non-Hive friends.
I always wondered why we couldn't customize our blog, in the end it's our space..
I think it is interesting, but we need users.
I still think the idea of optionally hiding post rewards is interesting.
That will totally be possible on the users own blog.
Supported the proposal.
If much more customization would be available in time, anything is possible. Just think that Wordpress powers pretty much any kind of website nowadays.
I would like to have this like Microsoft Viva Engage, which most business companies use. Even Facebook has something similar, called workplace - we can replace them all. Imagine, if a company uses our app where users can post on behalf of company account and then the company uses the rewards for charitable purpose, making some real good use of hive.

Why are you guys reinventing the wheel with when we already have Opensource Breakaway communities?
Maybe it's not enough custom / design and UI to complicated to handle / use.
Maybe, but it would be good to get some info about that from PeakD team
Share with us what you like about that project. Where has it been used and what does it look like and what can you customize etc
It would be this project: https://breakaway.community/
Sounds promising. Will vote for the proposal. 👍🏻
I think it would be great for any project to be able to run a blog with their own posts of hive on a specific front-end. This could be introduced as a sub domain for a project or company. It would be great to be able to set DNS for that.
Another thing that I've realised lately while getting into vibe coding is that it's difficult to find database solutions that are free. It would be great to have a kind of tool that allowed to plug into hive as a DB with json and memo keys for example. I don't know if there would be a real use case for it but I think this could be an intersting thing to explore.
MySql?
I think most content creators have a profession or at least a trade in which they work. It would be great if everyone could have a space where we could show what we do, besides Hive. That way we can exchange services and it would sponsor more onboarding. For example: A labor lawyer has a space in his feed where he tells about his daily tasks and can also promote it in different ways. Free advice, promotions on specific consultations, all paid with Hive or HBD. Another example: I am a personal trainer and I can have a space in my feed where I offer my services and I can easily do it remotely and charging with Hive/HBD.
So many things can be done, dear friends. I think the key is to make it simple and intuitive.
Greetings.
A few days ago I dreamed about this, companies and institutions joining HIVE. (I was even going to ask this question on Snaps, but I thought it was a joke).
In my area of greatest interest, photography, I see a promising future.
Where physical photography galleries can come and choose authors and content from the various photography communities.
Where the big photography brands (Canon, Fuji, Nikon, Sony) can advertise their new products.
Where photographers can create a market for buying and selling pre-owned equipment.
Where photography associations can come and present their activity plans. And much more.
You are always one step ahead. Come on! At HIVE, where one goes, everyone goes! No one can be left behind.🤌🚀
I have unvoted everything. There are 3 different versions of this open source already, including
MyCommunity - small enough to be freely hosted on vercel
BreakawayCommunities - already has community backing, integrates ecency (open source, free updates for life) and a very clever marketing plan
AND
YFE - which I told you about a couple months ago in a call and currently has 9 instances deployed, including https://content.hivesbi.com, https://moonrecords.crypto-dreamr.com, https://ecobankdevelopment.com, and https://guate.crypto-dreamr.com
This post has completely and utterly demoralized me about how you guys work. Good luck with all you do in this life.
Recently the plan has moved to include more of a Hive Dev thing in connection with blocktrades team.
https://peakd.com/hive-139531/@peakd/working-with-blocktrades-team-on-web-components
Perhaps of interest, perhaps not. Still may not impress you but thought we'd share.
Thank you for sharing!
I think it's a great idea to have a custom Hive Site ! You don't even have to re-invent the wheel: just get your inspiration from Wix.com, Wordpress or even Facebook pages !! The latter is f.e. very popular with small businesses here in France.
Integration with existing shop platforms like Shopify would really be an unique feature and might even convince new users to join Hive !
I want a frontend where I can store data related to hivepakistan onboarding
It can be even done by a github project.
I need comments and posts with decline rewards. A frontend where I can add or remove people in the list, add their details and others can search and fetch data from it.
While all of this will be stored on chain so users can also see my edit histories from on chain.
I may like to add descriptions of each user and their history.
All of this will be a revolution in how we manage antiabuse on hive.
