The Brit List: March 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

There has been a bit of a drop in activity lately. I have found more people to add to the list, but others have not been active. There are over 600 in my file, which I will update on Github along with the latest code.

It is good to see all of those Hivers in Northern Ireland have been posting. I am sure there must be more there.

If anyone needs help signing up friends then I have loads of account creation tokens to use up. They just need to be shown how to update their keys so that I cannot have access. Contact me via private channels (peakd conversations, encrypted memo, Discord or Twitter) to discuss.

I always tell people to make Hive fun for themselves. Initially you are unlikely to make much, but if it is enjoyable you will want to come back, so follow those whose content you enjoy and get involved with communities. Get some friends on board too.

It's a lot better than a year ago. I was told Brofund is at least partly run by Brits.

Whales are pretty rare. I think we had one who powered down a while back. Need to help out the minnows so they stick with it.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting that the numbers have been quite flat recently. 🤔 I always think Hive is so amazing it should suck more in but I guess its difficult convincing others.

I think it could go viral at any time if the right few people join up. We are the pioneers. I have introduced a few friends lately, but it can be a lot of work to get them started. I want them to succeed.

I also have introduced a few people but it is a bit of a steep learning curve and takes them a while to get going. I will keep on promoting Hive when I can.

Ah, it does fluctuate with incoming voting, but i vote 100% until my mana is about 60%, i don't use discord, but may start, although i make a fair few connections through comments on mine or others posts. As you said, not to take it too seriously, to just see it as a way of connecting with people as it's more open sourced than say FB, still i'm aiming for minnow soon.

I can give a few cents with a low vote, so I can vote on a lot of stuff and keep the voting power high. It's entirely up to you how you do it. Making connections is vital and it's fun too. We really need to do some meetups when it's viable. That makes a difference.

yeh just alloyradio was going be big project then prs and ppl was like over 600 Pounds i cant afford so i was like, ERM I CANT AFFORD PRS AND PPL TODAY so i was like gotta have to shut down it till i able pay PRS and PPL as not easy pay.

and hope lists goes up, because i saw was at 250+ and dropped to 257 now so thats few accounts inactive now.

keep note, got few people in UK too as not listed here, but they new to HIVE but i keep you informed about that because got like 4 more UK members on hive but they rarely dont post much part using @vimm but i try my best get them listed / get them use HIVE more like post and etc.

We've doubled our active contributors since last year. In any other business that would be brilliant?

This is social media plus crypto which is still an odd coupling.

People who are in the space see the sense of it.
People who are not just don't get it?

PS I've been busy learning how to fly a drone. It's a lot of work but I'm getting some results.🤯😂👍

It would be great to double it again in a year, but I am not finding that many new people. We need a push to get more active. I do see some coming across from Splinterlands, but we need other crypto communities to join up.

Have fun with your drone.
