🎉 Scholars and Scribes, there’s an exciting new frontend on Hive!
<p dir="auto">And we’re going to reward you handsomely for trying it out (info on rewards below 👇).
<p dir="auto">After years of development, Leo Finance has released the <a href="https://alpha.leofinance.io/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">Open Alpha of their “Everything dApp.” It is spearheaded by the microblogging service called <strong>Threads.
<p dir="auto">📢 <a href="https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@leofinance/introducing-project-blank-or-the-everything-app-launches-on-hive" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">Announcement post from LF is here.

<p dir="auto">
<h1>🐦 Threads is basically Twitter, but on Hive
<p dir="auto">“But wait,” you might say. “There’s already stuff like dBuzz on Hive.”
<p dir="auto">This is true. But Threads is a different approach.
<ul>
<li>🧼 It does not create a new blog post every time you use it (keeping your feed uncluttered)
<li>🚄 It has a beautifully fast and sleek interface
<li>⭐ New features will roll out weekly during this Open Alpha launch
<li>🦁 Supported by one of the strongest and oldest Hive communities: Leo Finance
<li>🤩 Threads will interconnect to a much larger <a href="https://(https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@leofinance/introducing-project-blank-or-the-everything-app-launches-on-hive)" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">frontend vision in the future
<li>🐝 Crypto rewards are concentrated in $LEO and $HIVE
<p dir="auto"> <br />
Like all Hive dApps, you already have an account. You just need to sign in!
<p dir="auto"><span>Head to <a href="https://alpha.leofinance.io/login" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://alpha.leofinance.io/login — it works with Keychain 🙂
<p dir="auto">
<h2>💸 Threads are NOT limited to Finance
<p dir="auto">Traditionally, Leo Finance has been focused on, well, finance. Crypto finance, in particular. Many people on Hive are just not interested in that stuff, and Threads understands and embraces that fully.
<p dir="auto">Which brings us to the Scholar & Scribe connection!
<p dir="auto">
<h1>📣 Phase 1: join Threads and share your work!
<p dir="auto">Below are simple steps and some examples:
<p dir="auto"><strong>Step 1:<br />
<strong>Step 2: Make a post, and be sure to use the <code>#scholarandscribe hashtag in the post itself. Share a link to your stories/poems (or someone else's)<br />
<strong>Step 3: You’re done! No step 3… I guess go explore Threads? 😁<span> Log in using Hive Keychain at <a href="https://alpha.leofinance.io/login" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://alpha.leofinance.io/login
<p dir="auto">The place to make a new thread is right at the top of the home screen. See below:
<p dir="auto"><center> <img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://images.ecency.com/DQmZ1troCeZwfAk5YpKdJZiRNgwxoptF7FqBcr9BbEtysPT/threads_how_feb_2023.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://images.ecency.com/DQmZ1troCeZwfAk5YpKdJZiRNgwxoptF7FqBcr9BbEtysPT/threads_how_feb_2023.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://images.ecency.com/DQmZ1troCeZwfAk5YpKdJZiRNgwxoptF7FqBcr9BbEtysPT/threads_how_feb_2023.png 2x" />
<ul>
<li>The Home page is for Threads. That “Publish” menu at the bottom is for long Hive posts
<li>You use tags right in the post, instead of adding them in another place
<li>The orange ‘Thread’ button is what you use to submit the thread
<p dir="auto">Just type into the box! You only have 240 characters to work with, including the link URL and any hashtags you want to use. So be brief.
<p dir="auto"><strong>The content you share does not have to be new either. Nor does it have to be your own. The Threads are upvoted and assessed as their own piece of fresh Hive content 🙂
<ul>
<li><a href="https://alpha.leofinance.io/threads/tag/scholarandscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">Here's the link to all threads using the <code>#scholarandscribe tag so you can see examples.
<p dir="auto">
<h1>🎁 Rewards
<p dir="auto"><strong>REWARD 1:<span> The Leo Finance community had generously offered to delegate a large amount of LEO tokens to a curation account: <a href="/@leo.scholar">@leo.scholar
<p dir="auto"><span>This account will be curating (upvoting) threads that use the <a href="/trending/scholarandscribe"> #scholarandscribe tag. This means you will earn some decent LEO rewards on your threads for participating. Others from the Leo community will also be dropping upvotes on good content, so don’t be shy about exploring Threads (post about whatever you find interesting, comment on others’ threads, etc.!)
<p dir="auto">👉 Note: Threads can only generate $LEO tokens and the usual Hive rewards.
<p dir="auto"><strong>REWARD 2:<span> Anyone who participates in this effort will be entered into a raffle to win some more prizes! One entry per account, no alts please. The <a href="/@leo.scholar">@leo.scholar account will comment on your thread to confirm entry.
<ul>
<li>5x prizes of 100 SCHOLAR
<li>5x prizes of 1 SCRIBE
<li>5x prizes of 1 HBSI
<li>1x prize of 500 SCHOLAR 🔥

<h1>🔭 Future initiatives
<p dir="auto">You’ll notice that this says Phase 1. Here are some hints on what future phases will entail:
<ul>
<li><span>Phase 2 will be about <a href="/trending/zapfic"> #zapfic
<li>Phase 3 will be about threadstorms ⚡

I love the fact that if you share content, it doesn't have to be new. There's so much great old stuff out there.
This is amazing... Welcome guys🙂

Hope you guys join us in this new exciting platform! The folks over at LEO have been working effortlessly to get this platform up and running. If you could spare a few minutes to check out what they've done, or share some love, that would be great. 🙌
Sure, its a lot of fun with threads. Making short content popular, rewarding and a great part of web3. Cool as you like - threads

As always doing a great job Jordy, congratulations!
Haha thank you <3
Interesting. I'll try it out immediately to highlight one of the zapficmonday posts I just published. 😁 !PIZZA
If it doesn't create all that spam like dbuzz, it's definitely a clear upgrade. I've avoided using dbuzz ever since I realised it was just another HIVE blog entry.
https://alpha.leofinance.io/threads/view/blitzzzz/re-leothreads-ur1gkz5j
Yup, this is the clear differentiator (right now) for me. I can pop off short little replies without worrying about how that looks on other frontends.
As for zapfic, well, you'll probably enjoy our Phase 2 campaign :D
Stay tuned!
!PIZZA
On leo threads u never bother about how they look as long as they get you some extra viewers and some leo tokens in vote.
not to forget the #scholarandscribe tag and the https://alpha.leofinance.io/threads/ is the place to post in Happy #leo #threading @jfuji

Wow! I have been reading exciting news here since and seeing how communities are coming to threads is amazing. There will definitely be more users exploring the new interface.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, super excited to see how Threads evolves and grows. And how well it does to draw net new users into Hive.
Threads bringing me to the scholar and scribe community. Awesome. I'll try to do a story and share on threads
Amazing! Welcome to S&S. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I also encourage you to have a look at the Community Guidelines post if you haven't already :)
Thank you
No, I haven't. Now, you've mentioned it, I will.
I saw you dropped a message to me in Threads yesterday when I was exploring my Ginabot notices. I clicked on it and was faced with needing to comb through a few hundred comments to find it. When threads at least gets notifications on the app I may start to switch to look.
Ah, because you likely accessed the threads through a not-threads frontend.
Gotta use the threads frontend here: https://alpha.leofinance.io/
Keychain works for sign in. Notifications are there (but still in Alpha phase).
Not sure if other frontends will adapt to parse threads. Will be up to them independently :)
of course .. my ginabot takes me to peakd always.. I am not one for jumping around on frontends.
SO then I went to the app and thought Oh I'll find it there ... there wasn't any notifications AND a real deal breaker .. the text is way too small to read without straining.
Hopefully they will improve some of that but at this point it doesn't draw my attention much yet. I don't use dBuzz a lot either
It's just that the Threads backend is done in a different way *(to prevent people from "messing up" your blog) but you can view everything correctly through the old or the new Leofinance UI!

if I only wanted to jump around on backends while catching up on my ginabot notices.
It's great to see this community participating in Leofinance's #Threads. I can't wait to see the amazing writing that will be published by Scholar & Scribe members!

Welcome to #ScholarandScribe community on Leo #threads
We are weaving #web3 with threads!

A web of threads is quite thematic :) 🕸️🕷️
Nice! Welcome to #LeoThreads! It is great to see more communities joining this great app.

It's more fun with threads being broken with #scholarandscribe tag.. A Web 3 microblogging initiative reaching the skies..

Welcome to Threads all the Scholars of Hive.
It is absolutely true

I'll join as soon as possible
Oh wow, I just found out about your community through Threads! I do like myself some creative writing!

Impressive!!! It doesn't get better than Threads, does it? Now let the Scholars start Threading (instead of tweeting) all those great creations of the mind. We are ready to support you and engage too. Expand your horizon friends, create new connections! Welcome to Thread!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Definitely, Thread more than Tweet more. It's impressive what Hive is becoming, and with these developments, in no time, Leofinance, Threads and Hive would be in the frontline of web3 innovations.

Welcome to #threads. It's great to see more communities joining #threads. I will closely follow the posts of Scholar & Scribe members.

Welcome to Threads.. Goood to see scholar and scribes filling that space. Looking forward to meet some fiction and stories creators.

Welcome to the future!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Welcome aboard! This is such a great way to gain exposure, expand the community, add some creativity to threads, and earn a little extra along the way. Seriously, thread anything you want. LeoFinance is no longer a "crypto/finance only" place. Obviously long-form blog posts remain that way, but threads is for everything, literally. The more users the better it is for the entire Hive ecosystem.
So, add your voice to the mix. Throw down a haiku, what you had for breakfast, or a picture of your cat. Link your own work or someone else's you find interesting. Doesn't matter. It's all good. Use the hashtag (#) #scholarandscribe and/or other appropriate hashtags so your threads can be found by others in the community if they don't see them live.
Hope to read some cool stories moving forwards.
Hive is the Way.
LeoFinance, the Gateway.

"It does not create a new blog post every time you use it (keeping your feed uncluttered)"

This is amazing, I can't believe I missed this post, it sounds amazing! Will there be a phone app at some stage do you think?
Such a great thing to have, and I'm delighted to hear that posts on Threads won't appear in our main feed, which was one of the reasons I didn't use Dbuzz that often. I've been hearing about Threads for a while now, but thanks for putting all this info in one easy-to-read post!
