I had a lot of struggle building Hive account. Even after building there is a fear that whale can downvote you and you could lose everything. So I write on the publish0x where you can have the income through the slider. But then again one after another web3 kind of forces you to depend on the goodwill of others to make money. And that trend continues with another trend, deSO chain where you can see monetization is again coming for your content.
So this chain named Decentralized Social aka DeSo is one such chain which allows you to build the content and account on their network sites. And you can turn your content into NFT and also tipping economy. It would be like Hive and noise.cash and yes you have to continue to be at the mercy of others to tip you or buy your nft etc.
There are few apps the blockchain has which has kind of opened up the web 3 monetization like - desofy.app and the diamondapp.com. These two apps make you money for posting the content. There is another story app which allows you to earn money for posting the stories. storiapp.co is the app that does that.
You can read and get the overall idea of the desocial blockchain.You can check out the youtube video that can give you that. And also learn the documentation to learn more about the deso chain.
Is it better than Hive? I feel Hive is infested with whales trying to control the entire chain. And soon small people would be feeling a need to move away. And so having other options is necessary. In that context explore the deso blockchain app.
