I have to object to one point of yours: You think it's a "free market system" but it's not when a downvote doesn't affect the voting mana like an upvote does, i.e. when it's "free". When the person downvoting has to "put their money where their mouth is," it's an individual opinion and O.K.. When it becomes a system policy supported by a special free downvote pool it's fascist crap. Today it's the bot votes. Tomorrow it's political leanings.
Aaah, things are so complicated
Yes, indeed. I have griped about it so much already, I'm very tired of it. Let's talk art instead :) Congratulations on having caught some serious upvote love with this post. You deserve every penny of it, and then some!
I thought it an ingenious move of yours to go to 3Speak with those timelapses. Are they open to anyone now or is it still hand-picked?
i dont know much about 3Speak, to be honest! That's why I'm trying it out :)
I think anyone can subscribe to 3Speak, though. It isn't free, however! There is a 20-ish Steems monthly subscription fee~
Thank you again for elaborating on yours points :) I agree, that tis probably much better to just focus on arting XD
I see. I'm paying Vimeo now, or rather, my hubby is. It affords us a 1080p custom embedded player without taking the traffic away from Steem to a mostly political context. I guess I'll stick with that.
If you want to try Vimeo, I believe up to 500 MB a week are free. I don't think your short timelapses will reach that limit.
Have a wonderful spring evening :)
