What Da Fuk is Hive?
A Happy Monochrome Monday to All!!!
So about the title???
That was a question someone asked, that was answered by Elon on Twitter today!
Could this be a big break that would see tens of thousands people visiting our humble abode? Nope. Turns out, unbeknownst to me, that there is a Hive social media app that is a mashup of Insta and Twitter. Yep call me a Boomer coz I dont get around the interwebs as much as some do lol.
Yep seems like Hive Social is eating our lunch
Yeah I know the feeling all too well. We as a community just cant catch a break!
As I was reading through the comments, for a second I really did think somehow people had discovered us...

I just read also about them. After the hiveblockchain company on our early days, now we have the hive social to compete with. : )
but who knows it will bring another exposure for us.
Yes we started off on the wrong foot it seems.
We should change our name to Hiveland and than everyone will get it right ...we are HIVElanders!!!
It does have a ring to it!
Seems that Hive is a generic term used by at least three different entities now, maybe there is even a fourth and fifth.
Sadly so. Talk about stealing our thunder. Its a bummer.
Dozens most likely.
I guess it's time to change our name again! lol
It might be worth a shot lol.
HIVEAN Social might be a good fit. haha or like the BuZZ Social.
Black & white photos really stand best!!
The third Hive we know and both others are more popular, just saying it again - the branding was shit
Sadly you are correct and I think we are all paying the price for it.
True dat but stopped raising my opionion now :-)
I had only heard of "the other" Hive because it seems like somewhere around the time of the big FORK from that other place, the other Hive was making some protests about the duplicate name. Of course they were two totally different things and it didn't stop this Hive from being Hive. Of course if there are even more HIVEs now, I don't really keep up.
There are so many Hives now, it makes my brain buzz lol.
Hive was such a bad choice for a brand name to begin with. There was already a company that invested in blockchains in existence called Hive Blockchain or something like that. It tried to sue Hive but failed because Hive is a protocol and there was no entity to sue. LOL
Yep. Im not sure how much the name has held us back, but it certainly has not helped!
A brand name should be recognizable.
