Each platform has its own flavour. I find a lot of Masto people to be very hostile to crypto, but that may be based on lack of knowledge and general FUD. We know it's not all scams. I still see potential in Hive and I've got a lot of friends here, so it's worth my time.

I agree completely. I wrote an article about this some time ago but so far nobody has bothered to address my arguments in any way, shape or form 😉.
I expect not many people saw your post, but discovery on Hive is lacking.
I skimmed the article your were answering and your document. There are lots of dimensions to the arguments about web3, as you covered:
Some people are never going to accept that crypto/web3 is a solution to anything, but I think it has a place for those who accept its limitations. Personally I have been put off corporate platforms by things like Google shutting them down and the descent of Twtr.
I think Hive answers a few of the criticisms and is the best solution I have found to many of the general social network issues.
I will say that I was a fan of Web3.0 semantic technologies and played with some of them. I saw a talk by someone about that at a blockchain conference a few years back, so it may still be actively developed.
Very well written. There's nothing to add from my side and I completely agree. Nothing is perfect and Hive certainly isn't a substitute for any of the big social networks. But it can be an interesting addition if you handle its limitations with care.
Thanks a loot for your reblog. 👍
