I had these lofty goals here at steemit a week ago. One quality post a day for a year, I failed already, In fact I almost quit posting at all. I do love the idea of steemit and STEEM, and I also like social networks, but after the first week and half, I am not totally sold that they belong together. These things ... are crushing my groove.
If I waste any more time reading the words of complaining assholes will accounts valued over 10k shoot me in the head. Just STFU! I could care less about your stupid greedy wars on posts that make $500+ in upvotes. I learned nothing from you other than this site needs an ignore, mute, and ban button, Thanks for nothing you greedy tools.
Does anyone even read posts at steemit? I have to try hard to find good content. I have to dig deep to entertain myself on steemit. It's not that the content I like is not here, most posters here do an amazing job, it just you can't easily find that content because it is buried by bot-upvoted, paid for placement schemes that have nothing to do with quality. Basically, you have to sift through all of the paid for autoposts, to find any good content. This turns Steemit into a "money making" platform, versus a "deliver quality content" platform.
This bugs the crap outta me. The best writers in the world will quit this platform before they get started. They will compete and lose against "BURN POST", quit and go where their content is valued. I was going to approach my friend who is NYT bestselling author about steemit... but there is no way she would waste her time here paying so you can read her content. Sure its all about ROI to some, to her it is about eyeballs, this shit is complicated with all the schemes and bots and tricks.. No way I am going to embarrass myself.... yet.
I am usually the guy who preaches about solutions, not problems... I will leave it with this... there are allot of possible solutions here at steemit. There needs to be a better UI and UX design. Algorithms need to be created to better ways to lift quality content. IT CAN BE DONE! But first everyone needs to stop being greedy.
GOOD DAY!
