Changes are very a necessary thing and it is something that create the progress bar of #development day by day and if its directed towards a positive way,then its amazing how things turn to improvement from past stages to the newly added dimensions. I have had a solid view over this notion for a long period of time and whenever I felt that I am in bad time of approach - I felt that I should change and in a way that would be constructive.
Very recently, the issue captured my full attention as I was busy in thinking about the matter - what happened to to the old lovely community, starting from "leofinance" as a whole main fork and from the same URL address to the development of a complete new app as leothreads where the vital designs,posting systems & strategy evolved into new form. Unlike the usual #Hive strategy, it was developed into a real time micro-blogging & macro-type form, both in the same #application.

The Tactical Turnover from Leo to Inleo !
I guess, back in the months of July- August, just after the time the app was launched, the active users were so glad and hopeful of the newly added designs and formats added by the development team. I was also in the class of "excited folks" to see that the transition of #web2 Twitter got new shape and dimensions as #web3 run #leothreads app.
That was amazing, more of fascinating feat was to see the influx of the users threading frequently and getting immersive at the facts and fantastic realm of it. #Threadstorm was one of the people's choice favourite and right after when Facebook #Meta just copied the name and the system and developed an antidote to fight against "#Twitter" -everything became clear that how up to date and timely the turnover of events in the app went on.
But now it seems fascinating to me to know that, "Leo" has been developed into more epic form of an #app, rebranding itself and structuring it into a new name. It is stylistic, short and chanting, easily can be fitted in the URL and moreover competent enough to bring a "new #trend " to the Hive ecosystem.
Because Leo has been dominating in this realm for years after years ; but in terms of shifting the posting guidelines from #crypto & #Finance only to everything topics is such efficient a generalization that it would help the app to grow in many dimensions, some of those we just cant imagine for the future !
Attracting New & Left-Out Users.
This annexation would be pivotal, because I have seen many of the Hive users to have the dissatisfaction not to having the attention and coverage as author for sharing non -financial matters and topics, because back in those days, the system didnt allow to do so. Even, such kind of #posts were ignored and viewers exposure wasnt there to grab.
This consequence left many of the users not to being willful to stay and connect with the other participants, because the other majority was busy in gossiping their own matters and interests related to #financial and crypto matters. The recent change would be vital to restore them and by giving the full freedom to choose their own set of "preferences" to open up chances to let the curators to have a tip over those users.

To a some point, I was also ignorant of how cryptocurrency really functioned and the value to #tokenization building into a smart and stronger virtual #currency system. Of course,its true that most of us were at some point unknown to those terms. But, as the horizon began to expand, the knowing acquaintances also began to unlock the possibilities of the realms.
But those of the users just onboarded recently and in the short time past, in the process of exploring what is a community, how Hive basically functions or posting manual, even the 2-3 months of introduction with community interests,with more of learning and experience they would still find Leo hard to get over, but now as #Inleo came things wouldn’t be that tougher as the past.
#Leofinance had been deprived of the participation of those types of users, less #participation brought forth low #engagement and thus the growth to most extents. If the user base grows well and the number of creators and curators added on, there would be progress that would make Hive to be a more popular forum.
I hope the progress continues on and the contributions towards the hive ecosystem is upheld to newer age. Its always a nice thing to see that the founders and #developers of the tribes are putting out amazing effort to set the app ahead with time. With the wind of change in technology and Web infrastructure, Leo would make further progress and keep inspiring others.
I wish a very good luck to the team for the future,👏
