Facebook is losing traction after news of the company allowing a political consulting firm known as Cambridge Analytica to misuse the data collected from facebook's 50 million users is uncovered.
People are deleting their facebook accounts so quick that it has started trending. People will post on Twitter about deleting their facebook accounts and post with the hashtag #deletefacebook.
This is not only small users deleting their accounts, Tesla founder Elon Musk has recently announced that he is done with facebook forever.
Many people joined Elon Musk in expressing their outrage to Facebook's schemes on social media sites like Twitter. Let's all join him in doing this on Steemit!
My Motivation For The #startsteemit Challenge
I have been on Steemit since June of 2017 and have thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. Facebook is a completely different story.
The more I research, the more I despise it! 4 months ago I created this post which explains how much of a propaganda machine facebook is.
More recently, I was permanently locked out out of my facebook account.
I will also quote my introduceyourself post: Facebook posts give you nothing. Steemit gives you money and welcomes you with open arms to the monetary revolution!
Rules For The Challenge
You will create a post
You must include #startsteemit as one of your tags.
It does not have to be your first tag.
You must resteem this post.
Let's spread the word!
You must give a short introduction to this contest.
This can be as short as you want as long as the contest is explained + link back to this post.
Your post must include the following gif:
.gif)
Your post must include at least 3 reasons why steemit is better than facebook.
You should be able to do this one quite easily, you are already here 😀.
The post must include at least 3 justification on why facebook sucks.
Good topics could be the oppression of alternative perspective on facebook, the side effects of AI use on facebook or the immorality of selling people's personal data.
I recommend for you to edit your post well if you want to win the competition.
No one likes a post which is not split up into paragraphs or does not have pictures. Include sources if there are any.
Rewards
I will personally transfer 6 SBD to the 1 winning post (which will be judged by me) once I have received the payout for this post 7 days from now.
Sources for images is provided by clicking on the image itself.
Anyone who is a supporter/user of crypto should delete both Facebook and Twitter.
Both companies are treating legitimate cryptos like bitcoin as a scam with their advertising ban, while they themselves are the biggest scammers, selling their users' data and not sharing the profits.
This is the truth @techwizardry! They are complete scams, nothing more to say.
Will you be joining the competition?
Top idea. All those who are currently deleting FB will be looking for something new...
Yup. SuckaBurg is against the ropes and the window of opportunity is there to draw in a MASS exodus into Steemit...
I hope SuckaBurg goes bankrupt and just gives up altogether soon! Steemit is so much more groovy!
That was my exact intention @samstonehill! You can also join the contest if you want 😉
really a great challenge buddy. lets take steemit to moon . Facebook will die very soon if this continues :)
To the moon! I hope fb rots in it's grave!
Will you join the contest @learner365?
Hey @chron! I just put out this new update for my Steemit-Twitter marketing campaign where I BLAST the #deletefacebook and others. I mentioned you in that post, and I STRONGLY urge you to check out (and USE) the information there : https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@transcript-junky/steemit-twitter-marketing-campaign-update-6 Feel free to suggest any ways to collaborate, ESPECIALLY during this MASSIVE window of opportunity where Facebook is against the ropes...
p.s. I just added your #StartSteemit GIF to the campaign page, and tweeted out your GIF, and added that tweet into the campaign page as well. The tweet is : ~~~ embed:978901503787372545 Hope this helps... twitter metadata:VHJhbnNjcmlwdEp1bmt5fHxodHRwczovL3R3aXR0ZXIuY29tL1RyYW5zY3JpcHRKdW5reS9zdGF0dXMvOTc4OTAxNTAzNzg3MzcyNTQ1IEhvcGUgdGhpcyBoZWxwcy4uLnw= ~~~
Very much appreciate this @transcript-junky! It truly is the perfect time to turn the tides!
If you had time to tweet that maybe you could also join the contest here on Steemit?
Since I have a policy of NOT ReSteeming via my profile, I use Twitter as a way of sharing other people's Steemit posts to the wider public. I want to keep my profile page clean. I hope that my including your GIF in the campaign and sending out the tweet will help your effort along. If you can think of a way of entering the NEXT contest (whereby I simply use the #startsteemit tag in my next Steemit-Twitter campaign updtae) WITHOUT having to ReSteem I think something can be done. Let me know...
I have messaged you in Steemit.chat. We can discuss this there.
People might be ready to ditch Facebook, but honestly I don't think Steemit is.
What do you mean? sorry, misunderstood the comment.
Join the contest man!
Yup! A lot of people deleting their FB account! They use the only messenger for this.
Keep in mind that facebook is still recording your data even when you just use messenger.
Feel free to join the contest 😀.
Thanks!!!!
Here is my entry ;)

Awesome, checking it out now!
I would join your contest but I feel like I have an advantage so I will give others a chance ;)
Please do join! Especially if you can use markdown properly. Many entries are missing a certain amount of professionality.
Awesome name by the way 🤣
Sorry, I didn't notice this comment until now. :(
But thanks! If you're interested in this account, it could be very profitable if marketed correctly.
I am not interested in using it personally, someone else on the platform might though... Have a look around 👍
