RE: I wanted to talk a little bit about onboarding

Hi, I really liked your post. I'm just a very committed user as a creator, but I often wonder the same thing regarding the length of the content. There are some communities or dynamics that ask for 500 words for example, or there is a tendency to value the length of the article, which doesn't bother me at all because I love to write, but I wonder if someone outside of Hive will really read it someday, since really every time the content is faster, shorter, more concrete and more impactful.

I think user retention is critical, and that as you comment can go hand in hand with a team to guide new users, but I think it's critical to explain to people that they have to maintain their persistence. In the end it's all about that, even in web 2. A creator who publishes one day and returns to any platform the next week, will not see his project grow even in 3 years. And since many users come to Hive as an alternative to an income (then find this universe full of possibilities, of course), you have to let them know that the growth of their account is not going to happen in a month. I've noticed that many people leave for that reason, as if they don't get the immediate profit, they get demotivated and quit, but this is beyond what one can tell them.

Maybe showing them examples is a good option, you have to think of a strategy that allows Hive to show the new user in a quick way, the results of their own commitment with the platform in the medium-long term.
