I gave Steemit a try but had a hard time finding my way. The platform was for sure not what they promised to me it would be. The users I met did not answer questions, commented and most were even rude.
Might be it's what all newbies have to deal with but it was not inviting at all.
I heard about WEKU and decided to have a look at it.
No matter what people said I like it although hardly anyone noticed or commented on me. I tried to figure out how it worked, worked at that time.
Since Steemit.com was hard to load I paid WEKU a visit if the site loaded and I was able to sign in and... I went back to the Dutch site where writers were united and I could join writing contests during thee months and many hours I had to stay in bed. I became a mobile blogger only very soon. My old laptop died.
I never felt the stress at WEKU I felt with other platforms.
All sorts of reasons could cause(d) it. Might be because it's smaller and more posts are written in different languages. For sure I read them in a different way and engage totally differently from what I was used too.
At a certain moment, after months of absence, I decided to give steemit.com a new try.
It was after a Hard Fork and very frustrating. I could only post once or twice within 24 hours and there was no SP left for commenting. Frustrating it is if you do not know what happened.
During my first period at steemit, I never understood how to sell or buy Steem. What I earned at my start lost 75% of its value and it took me another 6 months to find someone willing to explain the whole procedure, step-by-step, to me.
The great thing about Steemit was apps were developed for mobile users.
Steepshot was the first one I used and after that @partiko came into my life. A great app with a bit extra so I no longer needed to use steemit.com daily.
It's thanks to @partiko I stayed and kept reading, commenting, upvoting and posting. Without this app, I probably would have given up long ago.
They say the blockchain is modern but most sites are too heavy to load and not build for mobile users. As a mobile user you can frequently only see a part of the information and many most look ugly or are hard to read. I didn't expect that. I thought it would be futuristic, easy and way more flashy.
No matter how many hours a day I spent here, I still do not understand how it all works.
I wish they had an app too. Just a simple on to post with, read, comment and upvote. For the extras the site is fine.
I had to give up on the Dutch site.
They made so many changes that made it hard for me to sign in and load it. For sure it looks great on a large screen but not on a mobile phone. It was not built for mobile bloggers and an end came to all the tricks I already needed to be part of that community.
In the past weeks, I tried to visit it, post, read, left comments and upvoted.
I can not always load the site but I try.
Not much seemed to have changed in the past months. To be honest I do not care. Too many changes at once will not do a platform any good.
I noticed WEKU can be bought with steem-engine which I did.
What I do not know is how to transfer the WEKU pegged to my WEKU account wallet.
I know steamians are on WEKU so I hope you can help me.
