In my opinion Engagement is key. I think Ecency's new WAVES app will bring many users to Hive and engaging and answering their questions will certainly help Hive grow!

So true dearest Mel it's the primary key which is why I'm back on the horse right now and ready to engage like never before.. so glad to see your comment !LUV
This is not the key (forcing yourself to engage).
No one is doing this on a properly working platform.
Proper content, and real, actual content consumers, who truly actually care about (preferably enjoy) the content.
Natural usage.
This would be the key.
Just like on any properly working platform.
This is what makes a platform properly working.
Test it:
Find a small Facebook group (with a few hundred members), and post a related thing into it. Something you also care about. You will certainly receive comments under your posts. Even if you do not write comments under other people's posts.
You have a good point, but that's entirely up to the quality or type of blogs here. I receive more comments on my blog because of two reasons. The first reason is that I write things that interests more people and I know them as my friends. If anyone ain't receiving comments it's either because they're not known or what they wrote didn't know catch attention. Take for instance, you reading my blog that lead you to respond for the first time which caused me to come up with a blog inspired by your comment. You commented because it got your attention
Unique content is naturally standing out on a properly working platform.
On the Hive blockchain, it is often overlooked/ignored because of the general lack of the real, actual content consumers.
Proper content and content consumers are the key(s).
On a properly working platform (even in the smallest Facebook groups) you will receive comments under your posts, even if you do not write comments under other people's posts.
Real, actual interest in the content.
Usually this is why people go to a social network. Either to find a content that interests them, or to create a content, which also interests them (and others too).
Natural usage.
Something we currently very rarely see on the Hive blockchain.
Hive users mostly either do not write comments at all, or they force themselves to write comments, because they see this as a challenge, contest, competition, or any similar thing.
The approach of the majority of the users is generally deciding the success or the failure of a platform.
In the case of the Hive blockchain, it is the latter (failure) so far.
People rather go over each other (do everything to get attention to their own posts) than to use the platform naturally.
Otherwise the Hive blockchain is a technologically revolutionary platform.
Very sad that the majority of its users are currently ruining it with their approach/behavior.
Good for you. You are amongst the very few.
I (and most of the Hive blockchain users) rarely receive comments on the Hive blockchain, and even if I/we do, it is often spam-like, or simply feels forced.
Anything, but not natural interest.
While on Facebook, people actually and always actually truly care.
Sometimes they even write private messages too in addition to comments.
And in two topics. Birds of prey, and amateur radio.
Both of these topics are unique, and they are naturally standing out on a properly working platform.
