Thanks for the thoughtful reply.

Your point about valuing a person's contribution more than a metric really resonates with me. Numbers can tell part of the story, but they rarely tell the whole story.

I'm happy to share the post. The context wasn't particularly flattering, and the comparison between us wasn't really based on the same circumstances, which is probably why it made me smile a bit. Some of the observations about me were linked to experiments I carried out with multiple accounts while trying to better understand how certain aspects of Hive work. Whether all of the conclusions were correct is another question, but it was certainly an interesting read and I learned quite a bit from the experience.

I also understand your perspective on curation. I mostly curate manually as well and try to look beyond a post itself and consider the person behind it. That's not always easy, and nobody gets it right every time, but I think it's a better approach than relying solely on numbers and metrics.

As for the mention, I think what amused me most was not the context itself, but simply finding my name in the same sentence as someone whose contributions to Hive I've been observing and respecting for quite some time.

Here's the post:
