Coming to Steem is where I left other social medias.
extracurricular reasons
this either sounds like an application to a university or a SteemTinder reference ;D

hahahah it was the first word that popped into my mind that meant "other reasons" XD
and im the other way around
Steemit was the only social media and my first one
Now I'm about to dial down on my time and energy spent on Steemit......
Any particular reasons?
Oh, nothing surprising
Met some weird and unpleasant people
I wont power down or cash out, as I have never needed to profit off Steems anyway. The only times steems came out of my account are when I'm donating them to other Steemians, really.
I was super passionate about Steemit, building communities, curating, creating contests, reading and commenting and engaging (.... I think my comment counts are in the embarassing zone of upwards of 22 thousands) (lol) .... I even write artists' highlights articles periodically where all the proceeds go directly to the artists, but still. STILL some people are being weirdos. Accusing me of being over-rewarded despite what I do for the platform. And spreading misinformation and rumours about me behind my back.
Im done~
Signed up to conventional social media couple of months ago and am doing very well outside of Steemit :)
On Steem? Nooooo. :D
This is a growing place where with a lot of changes to come that will make it more conventional. The introduction of "money" in this way has brought out and amplified the worst traits in humans, yet it has to be approached at some point to get to where we are able to own this ourselves.
Hopefully you don't tune out completely because it will grow fast - when it does.
Hahahah yes, I guess I should have expected that people are behaving really terribly when money's involved... Still, it was a shame.
I'm hanging on for as long as I can :) But my high engagement style is bringing me a lot of success outside of Steemit, and there's only so much hours in a day~
But will hang on as long as I can, for sure. I've made a lot of great friends here, like Shibasaki, who made me his Comment Moderator at his YouTube :D I'll be sure to do right by the nice people \o/
