Minds Questions #1

For a while now I've had questions about #Minds that concern more than just me, therefore I found it appropriate to ask them in a more public forum where it's easier to acces than in a group people don't check or in a private chat with someone. Now these are just the questions I came up with, so If you have some big questions you can leave them in the comments and maybe they can be asked another time. 

I'm hoping that @ottman @jack @minds or someone else of the people who run the site to adress the questions, but let's see, they me be too busy.

Q1

Let's start with the first one, the BIG one: How much are the tokens worth?
I know they don't have a dollar amount since they run on the ethereum network so you need to get that and then convert that to dollar to get the amount. However I haven't been able to spot a place where I can see the ethereum value either. Or maybe I did find the place but then it appears to be worth 0?

I envisioned a future where you could live off of being a Minds creator, now before tokens essentially you could since you could tip dollars and had it setup like patreon, but if the only value tokens have is Views, then you can't really make a living here. 

Q2

For some reason I like looking at stats and numbers and was simply wondering if you could see the total amount of; upvotes, reminds comments and even people who were online on a given day?

Q3

I am always excited for new updates regarding the site. But hearing the phrase "Yeah, we have plans for that in the future" and "We are working on something like that" makes it kinda hard to know what you are prioritizing and what we can expect to see in the coming future. So I was wondering if you could have like an update log somewhere that states previous updates as well as the planned ones for the future and the ones you are working on at the moment? I think it could save you guys some time by not having to answer the same questions over and over and maybe get less of the same suggestions. 

Q4

Vietnam... Minds has surely saved a lot of Vietnamese people from the evil facebook and what not. But damn do Vietnamese content clog up my feed all the time. I don't mind them being here, but since I don't speak Vietnamese I have no intention of interacting with the post (and I don't think I'm alone on that) So I was wondering if you are planning to "divide" the site into domestic and global? This will really become a problem once the site opens up to more people with different backgrounds, especially also when the site is being translated to all languages.

Q5

Speaking of translation and languages. Will there be a testing environment for the translations? I translated the whole site into Danish, but 90% of the time the task was to translate something with NO context at all, which mean I just had to wing it and guess the context myself. This will mean that in a lot of situations it may look like the site has been translated by Google Translate, which I'm sure nobody wants. If there is a testing site, then I'd be able to check if the translations fits or not.

Q6

Is there a limit to the contribution points you can give a channel? I got curious since you sometimes get these people who just stumble upon your channel and likes everything. It'd be nice if it was the case, but It'd also be a very easy way to exploit the system.

Q7

And at last but certainly not least. How do the categories function? Under my profile I have chosen different categories of content I would like to see, but it seems to affect absolutely nothing. I'd want to avoid more of the political and get more of the "entertaining" aspects.
I'd also love to be able to go under the channels tab, videos tab, groups etc. and sort them by categories. Right now I'm craving content here on Minds and I'm sure a lot of it already exist. But I go through the same channels, the same videos and the same pictures over and over again to find new stuff. Sorting into categories would help out a lot here.



Thanks for reading this and I hope to hear some answers
