I like to try and test before making any assessment, so I did try it for over a week now.
Here is a list of pros and cons!
It exists.
There are people using it.
It is awfully slow.
It could be (probably is) the single most censored site on the internet. *
The notifications on trybe seem to be stuck permanently from day 1, the digits just keep going up, and no matter what amount of clicking you do to read the notifications, they never go away.
The editing software is from 1982!
it is awkward and clumsy to get around, even following someone can be hard to do/find.
I could go on though you get the picture.
*It could be (probably is) the single most censored site on the internet.
Why you ask? you can only write about cryptos or trybe, you have to submit your post for site moderators to agree it is worth publishing, this can take more than 12 hours. And then if you are lucky it gets published. People with the highest ratings get the most exposure ensuring those on there the longest and with a large following , will always have the spotlight. These people also have the most tokens ensuring they will get rich quicker than anyone else, as stated in an email trybe.one sent me the other day.
It went something like this, and no I can not be bothered to go and dig out that email. "WE will be having the next air drop on the 11th of December, and will be dropping 10 million tokens, those with the most tokens will get the most from the airdrop, go to these two exchanges to buy more tokens, blah blah blah.
Next Airdrop: 11th December
On the 11th December we will be airdropping 10 million TRYBE tokens.
They will be dropped based on the amount of TRYBE in your EOS account! The more TRYBE you have, the more you’ll receive!
I can not see Dan in any way being involved with this seemingly "ponzi" style scheme, not from the things I have read from freebornangel in the past. Do not get me wrong, trybe is in Beta, though so is steemit, and steemit functions faster as we all know.
The site seemingly encourages greed, and wants greedy people who have faith in their "token" I have no idea even what it is called other than token still. I have written 3 articles on there and have a balance of over 2600 tokens, the bonus on there is you even get a token for each comment you make, though as these tokens seemingly have no monetary value, other than on the site, I have zero idea what you are even supposed to do with them as yet.
If it was a boxing match steemit v trybe.one the bookies would not even take bets, and it would be declared a no contest before steemit landed a blow (see I am not anti steemit) I am though honest enough to say, trybe.one as it stands now, sucks big time, and unless it gets more social, it will sink before it even gets chance to float.
Verdict = if it was a school report it would read "must try harder."
Have a superb weekend what ever you choose to do!
