Why communities are so important

avatar

Today I was discussing with someone I have been trying to onboard for a while. The person is very intelligent, good at writing in my opinion, and even has a hand work, but the person refused to join because they believe they are not good enough to create posts that will attract people. And that even if they did, they'd run out of ideas.

This kind of reminded me of when I first started as well. I believed I wouldn't be able to write a post at all, but now I've written more than 150 so far, and even though I don't write everyday, I'm still writing as often as possible. (Thank you hive buzz for keeping track of that info).

I looked around and I realized that there's so much variety here on hive. The presence of communities help to keep everything organized, and even foster togetherness as well as ideas.

If you want fiction there's the Inkwell community, scholar and scribe, freewriters, to name a few.

If you want music, there's Hive open mic, Music, Q-inspired and so on

If it's movies there's cinetv, movies and TV shows.

If it's finance, we have the mighty leofinance.

If it's sports we have sportstalk social.

If it's gardening, we have hive garden, Agricultural mindset.

If it's diy (do it yourself) we have hive diy.

If it's cooking we have Foodies bee hive, hive food .

If it's to talk about our sexuality we have love and sexuality.

If it's photography, there's photography lovers, photofeed.

If it's travel, we have Travel feed and Pinmapple.

If it's gaming we have hive gaming.

If it's vlogs, we have 3speak and dtube.

If it's tech reviews, we have Geekzone

If it's Educational, we have stemsocial

Lest I forget the many general purpose communities like the city of Neoxian, proofofbrain, Gems, to name a few.

And for those who don't post there's games like splinterlands, Rising Star, and so on.

This is just off the top of my head and has not even scratched the surface of the many communities we have here on hive. Even with all of these, many more niches are being formed regularly to bring people of common interests together and build something special.

Like today I came across hive fpl (fantasy premier league). I play fpl and have always wondered whether other hivers play. My question was answered as I met a lot of hivers who play fpl on the hive fpl discord. Now this Is not even going to be a community (according to their first post), it's just going to be under sportstalk social, but if all goes well, it will enable me post fpl content on hive and I will be confident because I know that other like minded fpl players will read it.

At times finding your community is not usually easy, there are some who just can't find their niche. For those like that, I think posting in a general purpose community consistently to gain some ground is best, then once you find like minded people you can create a community. The Ocd community accepts any post that does not fit into any community.

Communities are very helpful not just for one's growth on Hive, but also for general growth as a person. Looking at the works of like minded people gives inspiration as well as fosters togetherness and confidence.
