Wouldn't it be fair that we pay for the tools that we use to make money?

I am all for paying more when a value added service is delivered. There is already a built in fee to post on Hive.

I then see the premium concept that inleo has established and maybe it's not such a bad idea to think about asking for money to enjoy a service.

I think the Inleo Premium is a bad idea and the affiliate subscription program that is unfolding is a worse idea.

Again, I am all for paying when there is value added to an existing service but to charge extra to edit a post and to suggest you will make more money by subscribing is not about offering a quality product or service. That looks like a tactic to channel more money to an upline.

May Positive pepEntropy be with you.

I'm not really familiar with how Leo premium is working but I understand your point with what you say. I'd simply love to see real competition between the services provided on hive and not a domination by the ones that have DHF support.

If I had to pay 5 hive a month to be able to create content on peakd or ecency, I believe it would be a fair price. Let's not forget that we pay for everything that comes out of the DHF by devaluating our own assets...

If you could elaborate on this it would help me better understand the suggested negative side of DHF

I have given some thoughts about this option for funding my projects and at some point I may submit a proposal for funding. However, I have other options for project funding so it would be my way of testing and learning more about this aspect of Hive. And I would do it as a process improvement or problem solving initiative.

we pay for everything that comes out of the DHF by devaluating our own assets...

I need more information to follow this thought. How do we devalue our own asset? You mean our Hive holding or layer 2 token holdings?

If you take Ecency, Peakd and Inleo they all have the support of the DHF either for their front-end or for another service that they provide, meaning they get hundreds of dollars every day from the DHF Check proposals. If somebody would want to develop a new front-end app, he would have to compete with these apps that have DHF support and that can provide a service that is seen as free by the users. However, it's not free because all the money that is paid through the DHF has a direct influence on the supply of hive. This is basically printed money and an inflation that is paid by all the people who own Hive.
