Tools that Help Make Hive a Better Experience: Comment Rewarder

Rewarding value, for value can be challenge for lower and mid tier accounts, and I always have my eyes open for tools that I can use to improve not only my experience but the experience of people who interact with my content.

Hive Stake Based Income One of the tools I use and love is Hive Staked Based Income from @josephsavage and @steembasicincome - https://www.hivesbi.com - it works as a curation booster, and I even recently learned it can be transferred from @ecoinstant . If you plan on being on Hive the next decade or so it's definitely worth a look. To give a unit to another person and yourself you send 1 $HIVE to @steembasicincome with the account name in the memo field.

DustSweeper I likely use the the most suboptimal voting mechanics on Hive, there should probably be a badge for it. If there was a contest I'd almost effortlessly win, voting strategically is probably better for you and the person you are interacting with - but here we are :)

@dustsweeper is something I've recently learned about, and just today got configured to operate correctly. Essentially you send Hive to @dustweeper and if any of your votes fail to meet the minimum threshold for payout - DustSweeper comes in and votes just enough to make sure your vote counts. Brilliant!

Comment Rewarder! This is a tool I saw pop up in my feed, recently and decided to begin employing so we will test it out here! I'll probably get it wrong the first few times but that's okay! This one was a cool find because @hivetrending worked on it! I've noticed HiveTrending has had a hand in a lot of cool tools.

Basically you set @commentrewarder as a beneficiary on a post. At the 3-day mark Comment Rewarder checks which comments you've upvoted and shares some of the author rewards with the commenters. I like it. See the post here: https://peakd.com/hive/@commentrewarder/introducing-commentrewarder-a-new-service-to-reward-comments

In this post I've set 25% of the post rewards to go commentors. What's the most common setting you use?


**What other tools should I add to my routine? **

PS. Yes I did make a variant of my icon image with blue skin as a nod to Ecency :)

    Commentrewarder is a nice tool to let people engage with your post. Sure it doesn't always work but it does sometimes and the comment get rewarded. I like this idea and use it always in my normal posts I do beside the Actifit posts. !BBH !DUO

    @commentrewarder service would have been awesome if it did not spam comment-less posts with meaningless comment "you are rewarding 0 (zero) replies".

  • @commentrewarder(75)· 570d

    @alohaed, I paid out 1.368 HIVE and 0.437 HBD to reward 13 comments in this discussion thread.

  • @darth-azrael(74)· 572d

    Right now, I'm only setting commentrewarder at the minimum of 3%. However, that's enough to at least guarantee the commentor gets something even if my upvote doesn't make it above the dust level.

  • @riyat(77)· 572d

    Thank you for posting in the Ecency community

    Sending you Ecency points ♥️

  • @doombot75(64)· 572d

    There are so many great tools around the ecosystem and it’s really more by luck that I come across them, I’ll have to look at these 3 - especially dustsweeper as my upvote is so small that I don’t really get to give the reward to things I really like in the amounts I would like to. !BBH

  • @pizzabot(60)· 572d

    PIZZA! Hive.Pizza upvoted this post.

    I still see vote from SBI1 SBI5 and SBI4 account. They are still active in Steem Blockchain, maybe I'll give it a try.

  • @funshee(71)· 572d

    I used to feel like my voting on comments on my post didn't count until I started using comment rewarder I so much like that service, all I have to do now is give a tiny percentage of my vote to those comments on my blog and they are rewarded in liquid hive at the end of my post payout.

    I haven't tested the rest you talked about, maybe sometimes I will give them a try.

  • @steevc(80)· 572d

    These tools can be great for those with low HP. It does help when the price goes up so that votes are more likely to be over the payout threshold.

    I tell newbies not to worry too much about voting on comments, but with Comment Rewarder they can still give rewards.

    You can also buy into things like !BEER to be able to give something to people, but it's not worth too much really.

  • @holoz0r(78)· 573d

    I'm not sure if it still exists, but there used to be an app called "Engage" that would collate all your replies and comments to posts and conversational threads into a sleek interface that cut down on so much clicking back and forth.

    Was awesome, but I've lost my link to it.

  • @happyphoenix(69)· 573d

    dustswepper is still working?

  • @ironshield(76)· 573d

    Back in the day HSBI was "STEEM BASIC INCOME" or SBI. When the project continued under HIVE, it became HSBI with the less communistic name. :-)

    Love comment rewarder, I've seen so much more engagement and comments since sharing 10% of my author rewards. It's good giving back! !BBH

  • @ecoinstant(78)· 573d

    I am going to go make a badge quick as suggested....

  • @neblomax(58)· 573d

    It's certainly great that there are tools that make feedback more enjoyable for content creators.

    As far as I understand, commentrewarder is the newest addiction on the platform. I discovered it a few months ago and it's a marvel.

    It's like a gift for all users, no matter if they are big or small.

    I find it excellent and I'm glad you are getting to know it.

    Thanks to you, I am getting to know tools like Hive Stake Based Income and DustSweeper so it's a pleasure to share the findings.
