Steem is awesomeness
It's been just over a week since I joined. Little did I know I would spend THIS much time on here.
This platform is ridiculously better than its competition. Although there are downfalls when money is introduced, such as the F4F issue, there are also inherent benefits.
Pure Content
Since there is revenue from upvotes, there is no need to secretly place ads within articles. This means that people can write their unobstructed opinion and still be profitable. This opens up a lot of doors for great content that truly addresses critical issues.
International Talent
I notice that there are a lot of users from all over the world. Since the platform offers a source of revenue, even people from poorer parts of the world participate. Not everyone can afford to display their talents on Facebook or Reddit, because they have to work. Now, those who are truly talented can actually make a source of income which motivates them to put themselves out there!
Blockchain Freedom
Since SteemIt is block chain based, we the masses decide our own future. As users, we can make SteemIt into what we want it to be.
