So, that's the next "short sell" for steemit. Purposely scare off or piss off the PC users that make up 90% of the market. They did it with mining, and consolodated earnings\power to only the

A tip button would fix that problem. Then anyone who finds content at any time can reward the author. No complicated rules, no stupid timers, no voting bot manipulation, just a simple tip for good content.

It's on purpose, like short selling. They are waiting for the wave of powerdowns from the hardfork to end. Nothing will happen until the "weak hands" or "disillusioned users" finish

Unbelievable. It's like listening to indoctrinated cult members scared of the outside world. If you read the transcript, it is clear they are making stuff up to scare the viewers and damage their perception

Because the developers and insiders with the most money are the only ones that can really give awards. It is intentionally biased toward the insiders and built for them to make money off of voting with

Right on man. Good rant!

That sounds like exactly what twitter would want, suddenly all the conservatives to just go away and Trump loses followers. It almost seems exactly like what happened with reddit and voat.co, they purposely

You're welcome. It is an interesting collection of interviews so far. Snowden just jumped right into the deep end right off the bat, his definition of "National Security" explains the last few

Great idea. I hope the intended audience listens. I have 3 suggestions for your new series of polls. I believe these are the major causes of the user retention problem that can easily be fixed or re-enabled.

The developers have left it this way so they can maintain control of unpopular opinions. Notice the people calling for censorship. Notice the people that can censor with a single vote, and have decided

Those in charge obviously think their last fork and changes are about to destroy all value. Why else bring out all these new accounts to cheerlead this bizarre change before the last set of changes even

The developers don't care what users want or about trying to make it better for them, this has been demonstrated over and over again. Simply creating a Tip button would have retained tens of thousands

It just recently stabilized near the dollar, it was at 80-90 cents for a few months. Now for some reason they want to kill it.

Are you kidding me? Before the effects of the last fork and change to payouts can even be evaluated, there is happy discussion of removing the the pegged dollar? That is the only unique thing about this

I hope not too, and your other posts on the subject are very good. But if this is debunked don't forget that your ability to edit and delete your post is disabled by steemit after 20 days now. If this

Oh cool, It's good to see a little common sense is making it on TV somewhere. He has a bunch of good Reality Checks on twitter too, thanks for the link.

It looks like it uses giant stepper motors for all the joints. That is amazing.
