The "100 Days of Steem" campaign came to an end. This campaign paid people quite well for posts (about $3 per post). They had a thing where they gave random $10 rewards for comments.
The ten dollar reward for comments should have spiked the comments.
I am really interested to see if the end of that program leads to a drop in posts and comments.
Just read a "1000 Days of Steem" headline.
I read the announcement along with the hundreds of replies in which people complained about not getting upvotes for their diary entries.
A thousand days of diary entries sounds quite feeble.
A thousand day diary game (with teams) comes off as weak. It will detract from anyone wanting to use the platform to fund actual content.
