Steem platform has given many people the opportunity to blog and earn online unlike other social platforms examples Facebook, reddit etc. Moreover, financial gains are not the only benefit of this great platform rather steemit offers folks many other values examples:
Education/Knowledge: In steemit, you can learn about new things, examples cryptocurrencies ( example Ethereum Lyte see their current white list section https://elyte.tech/whitelist.html ) , cooking, art, nature, literature, politics etc. This is amazing because knowledge is power and such power always lead to success.
Moreover, there are a lot of innovations going on behind the scenes in steemit platform due to the ingenuity of steem ecosystem.
Contacts: There are a lot of solid contacts on steemit which can benefit members in their personal lives (friends, networking buddies etc) and business dealings, joint innovation etc.
Promotional platform: Steemit is great in promoting someone’s brand or business however for new people or unestablished members, this promotion comes with a high cost just like other social media platforms.
Conversely, however, there are downsides (unfortunately) to everything (technology) because nothing is perfect-some examples of what I dislike about steemit are scammers (scammers are in all social media platforms), spams, peoples sending phishing links, massive takeover of bots, abuse of posting limits with low quality posts in order to cash out (8 to 10+ daily posts) ,greed , addiction to the platform, and abuse of voting and flagging power.
Conclusion:
steemit just like any other platforms has its advantages (as indicated here ) on the other hand, there are limitations / downsides too. The important thing, is that the platform has given hope to many people who otherwise do not have any other means to financial freedom plus a great learning hub, networking etc and we all should be grateful to the ingenuity of blockchain technology.
