The name Hive on the Web is too generic to be shared as something related, see this:
https://hivedigitaltechnologies.com/
https://hive.com/
https://hive.apache.org/
I think not only me, but some people don't like that name Hive, even though we are here. It's even difficult to find Hive in search engines, other results like the sites above always appear, it's a bad advertiser

Indeed, my comment was more about the logo, why it is completely different than our red Hive logo. Especially as the name is so generic, the style/branding continuity is even more important.
But it comes down to what I said, Propolis is a wiki which utilizes the Hive blockchain for data storage. It's not entirely focused on Hive, although it will be filled with content about Hive.
That's why we don't use Hive colors.
I see, I thought it´s aim is to be a wiki about Hive. Ok, in this case of course makes no sense to use the Hive logo.
But what is then the aim? To compete with Wikipedia? Why would someone use propolis if nothing is there, and even if all Hivers write one articel for propolis per day for a year, we still would have only a fraction of the volume of wikepedia!
It doesn't make sense to compete with a giant like that. Wikipedia's relevancy rules are very strict, and there are a multitude of other reasons besides that why people might not want to use it.
If we're looking for competition, I'd point to https://iq.wiki/
Calling this blockchain Hive was not a clever move. I cannot believe no name research was done.
True.
