Yes it seems even a place like steemit is not immune to the forces of automation. This isn't sustainable either, neither steemit or cryptocurrencies themselves. Don't get me wrong, they're a great thing

I think it's time to buy as much as we can

They're shooting themselves in the foot

So glad this is happening. It sucks for all those who might lose money for a while with youtube bullying them around, but ultimately I like that youtube is encouraging people to get on dtube instead. So

One way we can all improve our local communities and environment is to plant fruit trees when we go on hikes

I actually didn't know voting bots worked that way.

Driverless car technology will make it unnecessary to even own a car. In 10 or so years car ownership will probably be outlawed.
