Hive is web 3.0 platform and decentralization is the beauty of this platform. I'm here for more than two years but when I joined this platform I didn't know what was web 3.0 or what decentralization was. I acknowledged about those topics after joining here little by little. But those thing was never a problem for me and I never faced problems with those. Hive blockchain is not so easy to understand and naturally, I also faced some difficulties in the beginning time.

The first problem I encountered was the resource credits (rc). At the beginning time, I joined this platform without any kind of guidance and that meant I came here with zero knowledge. In the first few weeks, I was not so active. I just used to come here make a post and leave. I read a post from Trending where it was written that one needs to increase engagement if one needs to earn more. I have taken it seriously and from that I decided to increase my engagement. According to my plan, I started doing it and after making maybe 10 or 12 comments I could not make any comments or posts and an error showed that low resource credit. At first time, I could not understand anything and I thought this platform didn't allow anyone to make many comments. I also thought that every day I could do a limited number of comments and posts. But after that day I was never allowed to make three or four comments in a day after making a post and that thing made me a little bit worried. Whenever I used to see that low-resource credit notification I used to get angry. So I asked about it from a friend who was connected with me on another writing platform. I acknowledged that the resource credit system was developed for the safety of this blockchain from spamming. And to make comments, posts, follow, and unfollow almost everything costs resource credit. Moreover, resource credit increases proportional to hive power (hp) and it takes five days to fulfill the resource credit. Then another question comes to my mind how I can get HP? The way was to earn it from the post means which was used to convert 50%/100% of the post reward. And the another way was to convert my HBD to Hive and then power up. From that time I started to convert my HBD into HIVE token and power up. After continuing the process for some weeks I was able to get rid of the trouble of resource credit. Later I also acknowledged that Receiving delegations from others also could solve the problem easily. And in the current time, there are features to delegate the resource credit also. I faced a lot of trouble for it and I hope nobody faces that kind of problem.
The another problem I faced here to remain active and make continuous posts and engagement. It was indeed very difficult for me in the beginning time. So I set a daily goal for comments based on my available time. I set my daily comments goal 25 and at any cost I used to do at least 25 comments each day. In the case of posts, I decided to make a post in every 2 days, then 2 posts in 3 days, and later 1 post per day. So it was a gradual process. If anyone wants to follow the strategy then they can also follow the strategy. For engagement, you can set a goal to make comments at least 10/15/20 according to your time and then follow it strictly. And in the case of posts same strategy can be followed but for the topic you can choose to participate in various kinds of weekly contests that used to happen in various kinds of communities such as Hive learners, Hive Naija, Hive Ghana, etc, etc.
It's the major 2 problem I faced from the beginning and I will be happy if someone gets benefits after reading the post.
If you think that I violated any rules of this platform or my word hurting you or I made any mistakes here , let me inform about it through comments or my other social network . I will try to correct it if I made any mistakes.
