Hive, Leo and all the other dapps built on top of the Hive blockchain are unfinished houses, they are still a work in progress despite how great they may be today and, if you are a user of one (or more) of these dapps, it is because you see the potential and future value of getting involved so early on on this technology.
Hive is undervalued, the difference between the base layer blockchain and the second layer dapps is that the blockchain doesn’t need to market or promote the technology to users, but instead should focus on getting more projects to build on it.
It is the projects who should market to users and make the blockchain use cases go mainstream, while the blockchain being an empowerer to these dapps.
I go more in-depth on this idea in this clip from the Weekly LEO AMA.

Hive should be marketed but should be marketed as a blockchain to build on it and not as a way of earning some side tokens... We need users the same way as we need builders, but starting from builders instead of users will benefit us more. Once we will have these houses that you are talking about "almost finished", I'd say it's time to pay for some proper marketing for Hive. I have said many years ago that I would put money from my own pocket into a proper marketing campaign for Hive. All these shitty blockchains that are in the top 50 or top 100 and have way less usability than Hive does are there because of marketing and shilling. We need that too. We don't have to rely solely on marketing to grow the ecosystem and push the price up for Hive, but as in any business, and Hive is a hell of a good business, we need marketing.
The marketing method you're describing has the advantage of making things easier to explain to anyone asking about Hive. Gamers know games, bloggers know blogs, traders know DEXs, video creators know video platforms, etc. Developers need to know about the platform on which they BUIDL their dApps.

Give future is very bright, the success of other project on hive will be benefit hive a lot

That's quite a deep take and does reflect a lot of things.
The thing is this theory applies to a lot of things ranging from businesses to actual business locations, the marketing being outsourced to the layer two builders collectively increases the rate of adoption.
The internet point hits it right on spot.

The future of hive and other dapp built on it already sell itself to user for it protential. all these are things make people getting involved, and I believe the future is bright
Agreed for the most part but I see the potential for a huge catalyst in user growth in 3Speak.
Censorship resistance is huge and think of some of the fan base established content creators could introduce to Hive via 3Speak. Even more is the idea that these niches and/or creators could create their own tokenized economy for content,
Maybe something like having a "Banned Community" with a BANNED token for the like of Owen Benjamin or James Corbett for example.
We need you young nerds at the forefront taking the action to build these things that require lots of focus and flexibility to succeed.
This would introduce Hive to hundreds of thousands of followers.
Once people start seeing the power of incentivized actions paired with community and decentralization I can envision massive user growth.
You made some good points in this video.
I think the UX challenges are great opportunities for designers and entrepreneurs.
One advantage of Hive flying under the radar is the ability to innovate and iterate quickly.
I agree that Hive marketing should focus on attracting developers, while apps should market themselves to users.
One challenge of decentralized communities is the need for leaders to organize volunteers to achieve common goals.
I agree with your vision, the growth potential of Hive is in all the projects and dApps that can attract users and also have the ability to onboard people in a simpler way, focused on a specific niche. Many times when we want to encourage people to join Hive, we find that many think is too complicated from setting up an account or learning how to manage your resources when you are a newbie. The projects can make all this easier for the user and when many of these works in progress have success, the growth in Hive will be phenomenal.
