PeakD - A Partner In Decentralised Social Media With True Ownership - My Favourite Hive Dapp
Omo! If not that my love for peakD was so strong, I would have found myself writing about Ecency being my favourite Dapp thanks to the many entries I came across that are mostly about Ecency as the favourite Dapp. Well, I'm here with my own side of the story that "PeakD" is the best Dapp for your use except you're like the ones I've read from... I use ecency maybe because it's the first Dapp I was introduced to lol.
Image designed here
PeakD was the first Dapp I used when I signed up to Hive but I explored other Dapps in the first few months I joined to be sure I was in the best Dapp (I like good things always hehe) and PeakD stood out for me among all the Dapps I used.
Honestly, I won't be able to exhaust the unique and better features of PeakD as there are a lot and I'm still exploring to confirm my love for it. The more I explore, the more beautiful and interesting this Dapp appears to me. The moment I set my peakD to dark mode, I felt like I was in cloud 9 with it. Whatever site or app I find myself, I always look for a dark mode option before I start exploring... PeakD didn't fail me on that, it was the first thing I loved about it.
PeakD is super easy to use, although some people say it's complex but I'm yet to see what exactly is complex about it. I'll share some of those features that will always make peakD my number go-to frontend, they are just the simple things that makes the Dapp stand out.
Look at that profile, see how beautiful it looks with those badges well arranged showing you how far you've come and how well you're doing on Hive... Know that feeling when you see your awards positioned on your shelf or table at home? It's the feeling I get whenever I visit my profile to see those badges and even the posh icon. I know having peakD as a favourite means more but these little things are a big attraction for me, peakD makes my profile beautiful!
Talk about another beauty to behold... The member, MOD, Admin tags attached to your names if you're one in any community. My next most used frontend (Ecency) don't show this, it doesn't show reblogs, or number of views with ecency like it does on peakD. And you see that feature to read a post for you while you're a little too busy to read it yourself? It's another cool feature you won't find in other Dapps.
After exploring other frontends, I realized that peakD gave me the beautiful experience I needed as a newbie so I kept using it for my daily activities on Hive but a challenge some months back made focus on using ecency for a month and I couldn't just bear with the fact that I would have to stop using Gifs except I go download from gifs sites and upload them like images on my posts or comments while using ecency. PeakD has the Gif option anywhere for you to use... I guess only Gif lovers like me would understand why this is a good feature hehe.
.
While other Dapps show only your wallet and Hive engine tokens, PeakD shows you more than that... You get to see the different exchanges to explore and there's the game option to explore Hive games and then, one that is most definitely not known by ecency users... The "Others" which shows you this 👇
One of the promising ways to earn upvotes on your posts for a lifetime (as long as you're active on Hive) the ways to earn them aren't so much but if you're lucky to participate in some contests where they give it out, you'll be able increase your units and increase the amount of votes you'll be getting for a lifetime.
With peakD, you don't just get to add users you like to favourites. You can also have a list of followers you'd love to focus on for a period of time. Favourite list is for your authors while you could use your list feature to figure out your next favourite authors to be added... I'm sure there are more things to do with the list option on peakD which I'm definitely going to learn into and make maximum use of my favourite Dapp.
There are more features like the payouts to expect is shown on peakD, there is Beechat where you could connect with your fellow peakD users on chat level, and you could make collections of post also. These features are unique to peakD frontend and are more reasons it stands out for me.
I read two remarks from other peakD lovers and I couldn't agree more with them especially the last one I saw with the concluding part... "I'm a PeakD girl and I'm proud of it" 😍
You definitely can't go wrong with peakD, it is easy to use, very rare to have issues while using it and it is that Dapp for you anytime.
Conclusively, I would always prefer peakD but will also not fail to gather up ecency points whenever I could to join in the whale kind of boosting for my friends and newbies posts... It's the only thing that takes me off peakD Dapp and I find that to be a really cool feature on ecency. But, PeakD is my favourite and I just can't say it enough lol.

Lover of ecency, oya gather here and come and read these amazing clue from our dear whale 🐋🐳😂😂😂👏👏
Wow, this is a beautiful review...I got to know ecency during dreemport challenge sometimes last year...it's been peakd all along..fully featured front end...easy to use even by newbies...I am a proud peakd girl as well but I I won't forget to commend ecency for those golden points that makes me looks like a whale 🐋🐳 who can boost a friend's post with $1 when refund is escaped 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Did you had to call ecency lovers to gather?
Well, I agree with you 100%
PeakD it is for me and yeah, ecency and the sweet points 😁
That refunding can pain me sometimes ehn 🤣
Ecency shows only hive wallet, that’s why I really peakd, it’s shows everything, like every single detail
Only hive wallet?
I don’t understand. Do you mean access to hive coin alone cause over, i have access to many native tokens using ecency and can still render transactions with them.
About 30 of them
It doesn’t show your hive engine
Yes, it does and you can even claim all from there too.

Wow, have never seen it tho
Mine doesn’t show like this
When you open your profile. Click on wallet

Is this the website? Because I use the app
Yeah, this is the site.
I haven't used the app before
Okay, thank you
About 30 of what? You mean your tokens? It's like that for every frontend
Ecency shows Hive engine too and that's it
It doesn't show the others like peakD
My favorite is it's wallet, best for my clear and immediate and straight forward transactions. And I mostly feel Peakd front-end is for too serious people,🤣😂, are you too serious Merit?
Hahaha, Sis, we are too serious and mature 😎😃
Yes, mature is the word self 😁
Ecency is for babies 🏃♀️🏃♀️
I dey my house o
Lol serious people are hitting big quicker than the unserious ones you know 🤣
I am a peakd girl too. And I am proof of that frontend.
The list works just like favorite. But you can break then into different forms and tags
Like you add people to a list called, "Interesting writers", and another list called, "informative writers", or another called, "financial writers". Anything you can think of.
Thank you for settling this case in your court of Whaleness 😅
Oh wow, that is so cool
Only peakD can be cool like that 😍🤣
Let other frontend lovers be playing, peakD and I together 😂
I still prefer Ecency cause of coin which can be swap for upvote
May ask, is this publication a contest
Lol that's majorly the advantage many people use it... Yeah, it's a contest. Check the community I posted it to
I’m in for it
Thanks
This is quite a love letter. PeakD was my favorite back in the day too. I don't know what happened 😂. And all these enumerated features are part of what makes PeakD so special. I still use PeakD from time to time but let's face it, I was collobied by Ecency. Hehe.
Lol collobied is the word 🤣
Ecency is cool too, enjoy it!

As well as I know Peakd is the most popular frontend among others. I feel good using Peakd but I mostly prefer Ecency frontend. Both frontend are the best. It depends on how much comfortable we are while using it. In your case you feel more comfortable in Peakd and in my case I feel more comfortable using Ecency.
Yeah, you're right about that
It's the comfortability that matters
