Shoutout to the #posh and #gosh pioneers

By acidyo on 6/5/2025

I realize that this new initiative is still quite early on but some users have been doing some amazing work in utilizing it and I hope they're happy with some of the rewards we've thrown their way!

If there's anything I could ask of them would be to try and get more people to join in on the fun and also start including #posh for different social media platforms we haven't touched on before. It seems hive activity on web2 is on the rise, which is amazing to see so it's important to keep that trend going!

We still have some additional plans for #gosh and #posh token reward through comment commands soon, but currently I'm getting a bit overwhelmed trying to curate everything so please bear with me. :D I'll make another post soon about how we'll be adding more rewards through token issuance to good snappers as @poshtoken is finally catching up on liquidity for redditposh and blueskyposh through @nomnomnomnom and the weekly contests. Hope ya'll are excited for the upcoming plans!

Anyway, just a short post today wanting to give a shout-out to our first active members. I'll be limiting it to 8 people due to beneficiary restrictions, so please don't feel bad if you get left out. Just mentioning the 8 first names that come to mind with high and proper activity in the hiveposh snaps section!

@angeluxx @shiftrox @gwajnberg @ramisey @suisver @cositav @ibbtammy @stekene

Sending 10% beneficiary of this post to each of you, thanks! If you see this post, do leave me a comment as well for some #gosh tips testing! :)

New people are coming for sure ;)

!gosh 100

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/5/2025

my bad, forgot token commands only work on snaps! Will throw you a gosh tip over there instead @gwajnberg

gwajnberg's avatar @gwajnberg 6/5/2025

Haha no problem!! Interesting new addition!

fieryfootprints's avatar @fieryfootprints 6/5/2025

This is off topic. But sometimes you ask for new users to follow/ upvote. I think that @nestodibuja is a good artist who could use more votes. It seems that he started blogging just recently.

stekene's avatar @stekene 6/5/2025

Thanks for the recognition! I am really having fun browsing web2, mainly X, to search for some great Hive content shareworthy.

Definitely a great initiative, kudos to you for setting it up! 🙌

davideownzall's avatar @davideownzall 6/5/2025

I check from time to time the snaps on the community, I'm not a lot active there as main focus remains reddit 😅

Hello! I haven't been able to fully understand how I can participate in this initiative, but I'd like to.

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/5/2025

What pare are you having trouble understanding?

roswelborges's avatar @roswelborges 6/5/2025

Maybe it's something related to the language that has prevented me from fully understanding (I can read English quite well, but not 100 percent optimally; sometimes something escapes me). @cositav kindly offered to explain it to me and @ramisey will post explaining it. Maybe that way I'll be able to understand without having to bother you. Thank you very much.

ramisey's avatar @ramisey 6/5/2025

Hello, yes I will work on that. Greetings.

roswelborges's avatar @roswelborges 6/5/2025

Great! Thanks!

cositav's avatar @cositav 6/5/2025

Hola @roswelborges si quieres me escribes en Discord para explicarte Saludos,

Nota: @ramisey pronto sacara un post explicando detalladamente

roswelborges's avatar @roswelborges 6/5/2025

Estupendo. ¡Ya te escribí! ¡Muchísimas gracias!

ramisey's avatar @ramisey 6/5/2025

This is great, I love contributing to Hive's marketing.

I'm going to suggest something, when I came across the post about this initiative I found it a bit confusing (language barrier) and maybe that's why there are not many users here. My friend @cositav explained some details and I understood it better.

If you think I can make a post with an explanation in Spanish to attract more Hispanic hivers?

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/5/2025

For sure, feel free to post it in the hiveposh community!

ramisey's avatar @ramisey 6/5/2025

Ok, I will get to work on that. Thank you.

ramisey's avatar @ramisey 6/7/2025

Hello, yesterday I made the tutorial, here I share it to reach aaa users.

cositav's avatar @cositav 6/5/2025

Hi @ramisey , your idea is excellent, and I know you'll do it very well. ☺️ You understood me very well without too many complications, and that makes you ideal to take this message to the community we're part of. Thank you. 😊😊😊😊

shiftrox's avatar @shiftrox 6/5/2025

I'm very happy to take part! This support that we're giving each other on X (especially) has a magnificent effect, I've seen that some of my posts related to hive are getting more than 400 views and that was something surreal until recently!

And obviously I'm also happy to be able to help hive posts get more views, likes, comments, I'm all in! I'll try to get more people from our community to take part!

I just had a question, I've been publishing some posts I made here on Hive on publish0x, I don't know if you remember, you even commented on using them for the gosh project, but I wanted to confirm this with you. Can I take my posts from publish0x and put them in the hivegosh community?

A big hug and thanks for this opportunity to participate and help!

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/5/2025

Yeah that's fine, I think the general universal thing we wanna add as a requirement eventually is to tag both #gosh/#posh and then what platform you're requesting support on to help make browsing/choosing where to help out easier. Some platforms may not show embeds (such as Instagram, although asgarth mentioned he'll look into it), so to avoid confusion it'd be nice if people could start adding more tags in the beginning such as in your case it'd be #gosh #publish0x followed by a link.

shiftrox's avatar @shiftrox 6/5/2025

Perfect, I'll do that with some publish0x links then! I've already seen that we have some hivers there, I want to try to get more people there, we can create a hive network there and get a few bucks and then take that amount and invest it here at Hive.

Hello

hi

angeluxx's avatar @angeluxx 6/5/2025

Great, thanks for valuing our work. Well, it's not a job per se because I love it. It's super.

katerinaramm's avatar @katerinaramm 6/5/2025

This is amazing!

I do not use much of my web2 accounts lately, but I hope to do it in the future

I had an idea the other day, maybe this would interest you.

What would you say about a ... reversed $posh?

Meaning, what if a user who is in hive already (or we can give this as an incentive to create a hive account) - makes a post on a web2 i.e. Instagram mainly and this could automatically be posted as a short form post (i.e. snap, wave or thread) - if they use a specific hashtag? This idea came to me because I have some friends posting amazing content on instagram (mostly photographs or videos), but I just cant get them to post on hive, they have made a few posts but consider this too complicated.

I would love to have your input on this... (I am only referring to short form posts)

Thank you for your time and support!

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/11/2025

Anything "automatic" needs API calls, we're lucky reddit works currently for @redditposh comments similar to how twitter posh worked in the past. But it's most likely just a matter of time until they also start making that cost and we're unsure if that cost is going to be manageable or if it's going to be as stupid as twitter asking $42,000/month.

I initially like the idea, sort of like a "pending rewards" kind of thing where if they want to eventually claim the rewards they may have earned on hive the account here handling all that would've stored who the user was using the tags and allow them to receive the rewards once they login with instagrm/other web2 confirming their identity. But it begs the question if just using a tag on web2 benefits hive in any way.

suisver's avatar @suisver 6/5/2025

Thank you for the very significant detail, it is a pleasure to be in this project where we make hive known, I see it in a positive way, since it may become more and more known, which is the goal

ibbtammy's avatar @ibbtammy 6/5/2025

Thank you so much for recognizing me. This initiative has been nothing but fun.

also start including #posh for different social media platforms we haven't touched on before

I personally don’t understand how posh works that’s why I haven’t given it a shot.

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/11/2025

#posh stands for proof of sharing, compared to #gosh which stands for "go share", it's more like you're just showing off your hive related share and wanting some rewards for that.

The strength with posh snaps is that you can showcase any web2 platform and it doesn't require automatic fetching using API's which are very restricted since you just manually input a link and/or screenshot. So we can now include any web2 platform in being curated for people who've made an effort in sharing something hive related there in an effort to drive traffic/attention to our ecosystem.

#gosh instead is more about encouraging others to go out there and help increase the visibility of a certain post - doesn't always have to be twitter either but preferably something many already have accounts on and can easily go there and help you out.

x-rain's avatar @x-rain 6/5/2025

A squad searching for Hive promo gems on X (and not only) and bringing them to those with no time for scrolling X - amazing!

Would it be okay if I share the bestest HivePosh Snaps on general Snaps sometimes?

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/11/2025

I don't see why not, as long as the people on general snaps don't mind.

latinowinner's avatar @latinowinner 6/6/2025

good luck

winanda's avatar @winanda 6/6/2025

This is a good initiative. I've been promoting the Vibes community and Hive as a whole on X, Instagram, and Facebook. So, do you advise we include posh and gosh hashtags in our posts about Hive on the Web2 spaces, and share posts about Hive on Web2 in the Hiveposh Snap feed?

acidyo's avatar @acidyo 6/6/2025

No the posh and gosh hashtags won't do anything on web2. You just share links to tweets you want supported with #gosh or if a tweet or (other web2 platform) did well that attempted to promote hive/hive dapps then tag it #posh in the hiveposh community snap section.

winanda's avatar @winanda 6/6/2025

Oh, I understand now. Thanks.

So, can I also share my tweet links to my posts on Hive?
