The number of interviews is growing... You asked for them, you got them... 😃 It's always nice to find people who are doing cool things on HIVE and to have a talk with them... Many times, their work is crucial but still not "visible" enough to the community... That's why it's important to bring cool Hivians to the spotlight and give them space to show their work... Every Hivian is important, and if you are creating and engaging with others, your work is appreciated!

As I wrote in the announcement post for the show, meaningful comments are crucial for HIVE! Without them, HIVE would be just a "news portal" without feedback, without the space to "express yourself", especially if you don't create content... Luckily, you can always leave a comment in the comment section, ask the author questions, or engage with other commentators... For a long time, comments were "forgotten" and somehow, not appreciated enough... But, with @TopComment, our special guest on the show has worked on that issue to make a change!
On this HumpDay, we had a great, relaxed talk with @FriendlyMoose, not just about the @TopComment but also about broader topics connected to HIVE, and I would strongly suggest you check the recording of the show! The other participants in the show (our great audience) were inspired during the show, asked many questions, which made it all a lot more interesting! They were those meaningful comments on a post during the show!!! Thanks guys! As usual, I have created short titbits as a description of the video... (they don't cover all that was said, so please check out the recording too!)
In the beginning, @FriendlyMoose told us more about himself and his crypto journey... Also, he shared how he found HIVE and his first steps on this platform through the eyes of a photographer...
During the show, it was obvious that many people from the audience did know him from his Hive Photo Contest! Also, @ninaeatshere met him in the Cycling community, which was his creation... Check the community here...
The idea for @TopComment came from posts that @FriendlyMoose published in the Photography community, where people would comment by giving tips and useful comments... So, why wouldn't we have a tool to reward those great comments? Sometimes, comments are better quality than a post, but on the other side, they aren't upvoted better...
To find these posts, @FriendlyMoose is using a script that filters out posts with X number of words, as a good, meaningful post needs to have more than 2-3 words... In the next step, curators (currently there are two that help him on the project, @lauramica and @roadstories) are checking manually those comments and rewards those who are genuine, relevant to the post, and of course, valuable to other readers too!
There is another way of finding good comments that anyone on HIVE can do it... If you spot a good comment, you reply to it, and in the end, you just tag @TopComment... After that, team curators will check it out and see if it is eligible for support!
Like I said in the beginning, participants in the show were inspired to ask questions during the show... @buttcoins asked about AI bot comments and how to spot them... @cositav mentioned Spanish language and translation of the show in the chat, so I asked a similar question to our guest... Do they reward other languages' comments?
@manclar had a question about collaboration with @commentrewarder as it is following the @topcomment trail and giving additional upvotes... It's great to notice that we didn't have any tool that would reward comments a few months ago, and now we have at least 2!
In the second part of the show, others from the audience had a chance to jump on the mic and ask questions... First was @starkerz, who mentioned how we could find genuine people when Hivians spend HBD in some Hive businesses... "proof of person" concept... For example, having a badge that you are a real person! Great idea!
@achim03 had a question about the financial side of the project... If there is any, or if it is still voluntary work... These things are important as they very often provide longevity to the project... Most HivePower that upvotes comments are coming from delegators, so if you want to help out the project, you can delegate some (please, not all! 🙂) HP to @topcomment!
We had a few more interesting questions in the chat section... @buttcoins asked where FriendlyMoose sees TopComment in a year, @manclar asked about the support to comments in other languages, and @foxkoit wanted to know which skill our guest would master instantly, if that would be possible... 😃
At the end of the show, @FriendlyMoose shared the challenge for the listeners of the show... It's not limited to those who were in live, so check the video for more details about that!
Don't forget to check out the show recording below!
We had 20 participants (including our guest and myself) in the show this week!!! Thanks for participating, @achim03, @bulkathos, @buttcoins, @cositav, @cryptoreforma, @duskobgd, @felixxx, @foxkoit, @friendlymoose, @incublus, @manclar, @melinda010100, @misticogama, @ninaeatshere, @palomap3, @sacra97, @starkerz, @takeru255, and @travoved! Thank you, guys and girls, for joining. I hope you had fun and learned something new about HIVE! Special thanks to @FriendlyMoose for accepting the invitation to be a special guest on the show!
As usual, we had an after-show where we talked about different topics, but that part wasn't recorded, and to participate, you should have joined the live show! 🙂
Thank you, guys and girls, once again! As a sign of appreciation, I will send some LEN tokens to all participants of the live show! You can pair them with LENM tokens, add liquidity to the diesel pool, and earn rewards! If you want to learn more about the project behind it, check out the @liotes account or visit the Liotes website... Of course, if you are not interested in it, you can sell tokens on the Hive-Engine market...
To encourage more people to come on the mic, I usually send additional ECENCY points for those who are sharing things in voice... We had a special guest that day, but we had an open mic part of the show where people could ask questions on the mic... This week, POINTS go to @starkerz and @achim03 as they were the only ones that came on mic to ask questions to our guest!
Special thanks goes to @melinda010100 and @good-karma for providing the space for the event!
Thank you for your time,
