Today I looked for other decentralized social media platforms and found many.
Actually I'm very excited for the future of steemit and from a egoist pespective I hope it will be always big, because I builded something up here in the past 1,5 years. But still I have some FOMO when I see how much other projects are going to do the same or something similiar. Especially when it comes to certain points there is potential for others to make it way better. On steemit the trending page is "owned" by whales, new users barely have a chance to enter this area. Also the communication from steemit is not the best for someone who doesn't want to check Github for everything. If another site can make it better, especially avoid the "whale centralisation", Steemit can quickly become the next Myspace. I really hope this doesn't happen, but time will tell. Not all projects offer exactly the same as Steemit, it is always possible to coexist.
Anyways here is a list of other projects I found. I still feel like I didn't found all. Do you know more? What do you think about those projects? I don't know most of them, but I am curious which ones are promising.

Eigentlich bin ich sehr gespannt auf die Zukunft von Steemit und aus einer egoistischen Perspektive hoffe ich, dass es immer groß wird, denn ich habe hier in den letzten 1,5 Jahren etwas aufgebaut. Aber ich habe immer noch etwas FOMO, wenn ich sehe, wie viel andere Projekte dasselbe oder etwas ähnliches tun werden. Gerade wenn es um bestimmte Punkte geht, gibt es Potenzial für andere, es besser zu machen. Auf Steemit ist die Trendseite von Walen "besessen", neue Nutzer haben kaum eine Chance, in diesem Bereich zu erscheinen. Auch die Kommunikation von Steemit ist nicht das Beste für jemanden, der nicht immer Github überprüfen möchte. Wenn eine andere Seite es besser machen kann, und vor allem die "Wal-Zentralisierung" vermeiden ann, kann Steemit schnell zum nächsten Myspace werden. Ich hoffe wirklich, dass das nicht passiert, aber die Zeit wird es zeigen. Auch bieten nicht alle Projekte genau das gleiche wie Steemit, es ist immer möglich, nebeneinander zu existieren. Wie auch immer, hier ist eine Liste von anderen Projekten, die ich gefunden habe. Ich habe immer noch das Gefühl, dass ich nicht alles gefunden habe. Kennt ihr vielleicht sogar noch mehr? Was denkt ihr über diese Projekte? Ich kenne die meisten nicht, aber ich bin gespannt, welche vielversprechend sind.
