Parler is THE place where people are going for "getting away from censorship" and is being branded as such. Their PR is all over the place and the celebrities and personalities they are pulling in is massive. Parler in a shorter amount of time has millions and millions of users, and is exploding in growth as big tech censors more, WE should be getting those users but we are not.
I will once again reiterate that Steem/Hive is not setup for explosive user growth, this needs to happen ASAP. We can expect the price of Steem/Hive to go down over time as long as Posts/Day do not increase. Comments/Day isn't a good indicator of price rising as commenters don't really need much Resources to comment.
Anyway, the simplest concept I thought of regarding how to do this as follows:
All Hive accounts automatically send their unused Resource Credits(still called that?) to a Global Pool. What this would look like, an account gains 20% Resources Credits per day, if the account is already at 100% fully charged and a whole day has gone by with the user doing nothing, 20% of the Resources Credits earned for that day should go to Global Pool(including new users/free users/old users/everyone so that nothing is wasted).
Global Pool is where Resources pull from for users who don't have enough of their own, accounts using the Global Pool are limited in what they can do. They shouldn't be able to upvote or downvote, can make a low number of comments per day, can make 1 post per day maximum, if these accounts are found to be spammers or doing some sort of bullshit that ruins the blockchain(posting illegal porn for example) their free delegated power/Resources/whatever from Global Pool should be taken away.
New Users who sign up need to have a similar sign up experience to Parler(as an example).
Really go out and get the word out, interviews, TV, call into radio shows with huge followings, whatever.
Profit?!?!?! lol maybe
Doing a quick check on posts per day using the data from @penguinpablo I see that we are about the same as 8 months ago, being around 13k posts a day, the peak was in May closing in around 23k posts per day. I do see comments per post going up which could be good, but I am not sure how much % of that is bot posts that need to be taken out(maybe 25%?)
This isn't enough and it needs to be wayyyy more.
