RE: The reason nobody cares about Steem besides ourselves.

in #steem6 years ago

I can agree with this. I can honestly say that most of what I post is just personal opinion that would not rank highly anywhere else, but then I put out some original music that may have more value. There is a 'circle jerk' aspect to Steem as well as those just buying votes to make themselves look important even if they do not make much profit on the deal.

We desperately need the sort of content creators who will bring in the next wave of users. We do have lots of great artists including lots of original #comics that are not getting the rewards they deserve. These people put hours into their work and make cents whilst someone with the right friends can make a lot more for a selfie.

We have to be honest about what is good for the Steem platform and do what we can to make it happen. That is what will drive up the price in the long run and then we all benefit if we have built up some Steem. We have seen what the current strategy brings, stagnation and good people giving up.

Completely agreed, specially the part of the #comics. So much undervalued and talented authors.

Now it's time to be true to ourselves. Those who really add value will prevail.

I seriously think we can't wait to start spreading "symbolic" downvotes on content that adds zero value, specially from people we follow. The way I see it: resources are wasted, the reward pool is drained and the reputation of our network goes to the shitter.
