The Brit List: February 2022

avatar

Introduction

I started compiling these lists in December 2020 to continue something @pennsif used to do as I think it helps bring the community together. Since then I have found lots more people to include. @HiveSQL has been really useful for this. I use Python with beem (by @holger80) in a script to generate what you see here. Some of the post is manual as I like to include some commentary and I will keep tweaking it. I am open to suggestions for improvements. I aim to do a fresh list on the first Saturday of each month.

I also rely on the community to let me know of more people to include who may not have obvious account metadata. You can find me in the @teamuksupport Discord to discuss it or drop me a comment.

The list will include anyone living in the UK as well as Brits who have moved abroad. Inclusion on this list does not mean I recommend people, but I will remove accounts if they are known to be abusing Hive or are falsely reporting their location. If you have lost control of your account through phishing or other means then let me know so that I can update your entry.

Previous editions

What it means

The numbers above are for those who had posted or commented in the previous month. In the lists below I break each region into three lists:

  • Active as above.
  • Just voting. I will guess that a lot of these use automatic votes, e.g. HiveVote. Previously there were some that appear to have been compromised as they vote for known abusers. Those are now excluded until I hear that they have recovered control.
  • Inactive in the last month, but most have done something since Hive started. We can hope to bring them back.

I want to count people rather than accounts as some have several. I can include those in brackets if you want. Let me know if you want me to update your listing. You can be as specific as you like about your location.

Commentary

We have exactly the same number active in the last month as the last time. That is better than a drop. A lot of areas have seen a drop in activity, but the South West did improve a bit. We gained fifteen new accounts who have at least voted. We have to keep on encouraging people to stay active, even if they just drop by once each week. Not everyone is online all the time. They can use Hive.vote to ensure their voting power is not wasted.

If you know of people having trouble signing up then let us know on Discord as various people can create accounts. I have done that for some friends recently.

Talk to people about Hive and what it can offer them. There is life beyond the big corporate platforms and more people could be earning from what they do online.

You can use this list to help in organising local meet-ups if that is viable given the current situation.

Interesting as always to see this data Steve. I'm surprised to see so few whales in the UK team? What are your thoughts on having a meetup sometime? I'm up for it. I've tested negative for Covid19 for the last 3 days. I'm still feeling a bit rough but would welcome a meetup. 👍

I think there used to be another UK whale, but they powered down. Whales are pretty rare anyway.

I could be up for a meetup some time. I think Brighton could be good as we have a load of people down that way. Just needs someone to set a date and venue.

Brighton sounds like a good place for a meetup. Very photogenic town. 👍

I'm off to visit hadrians wall on Thursday for a few days. Trying out a few new gadgets lol

Enjoy your trip. It should be viable for me to get the train to Brighton, so could be a nice day out. I'm not sure if I have been there.

Brighton is a lovely town as I recall. I haven't been there in decades. I think you'll have to change trains in London? 👍

Can do it with one change at Three Bridges. But if several of us go from 'the north' maybe it's worth doing a car share, COVID permitting of course. My other half has got it now, but I've avoided it so far.

Sorry to hear about your other half getting covid. I hope it passes quickly. I'm still having a few symptoms weeks later but not so bad.

A car share might be cheaper than the train but it's quite a long drive to do in one day?
The train might be faster?

Looks like journey time by road or rail is similar and rail is not too expensive at weekends.

Maybe @stickupboys will organise a meetup when the weather is conducive to doing it outdoors. I'm still wary of indoor gatherings.

What a brighton meet up? or big tour of the UK in a minibus?

I think there should be a Brighton meetup some time given how many people we have down that way and some of us would travel down for it. A tour sounds fun too.

I think you'll probably get covid with the other half already infected? It's highly contagious. I'm still wearing a mask if I go out (rarely)
Either car or train I'm up for it 👍
