photo cred
What's it going to take for people to get their heads out of their Facebook feed, and into the steemit wave!?
All Facebook has ever done for me is take and take.
It takes my photos. Takes ownership of any materials I post. And regulates it's users to their specifications.
I haven't seen them offer much of anyone any kind of profits for their content.
The most I've seen has been from multi level marketers who are continually exploiting the users and massive spread of available clientele through that channel.
Does this mean it's the only way? Hell no!
You and I both know, there's more to it than that. We are steemians!
We know that things are much more gratifying when we are able to share the wealth and provide our personal support within the community when we see something we like.
That like button, has such a hollow meaning. But now, let's look at our steem network. We all know where it is. What we got. And the potential we have for greatness.
Every day we are seeing the steem umbrella spreading with things like dtube, pornd, and the like.
Let's keep in mind, of course. Steemit is still in its beta phase. But what a hit!
BAM!
End rant!
I quit Facebook a while ago because I saw how I waste my time there without getting anything in return. A few days after I discovered Steemit. Now, instead of mindlessly scrolling my newsfeed I spend time on Steemit. It was the best decision I ever made.

Yes, I fall victim to this charade as well. Being as it is. We don't even communicate our phone numbers we have. Just Facebook contacts. Our society is building a reliance on that service that just takes from us.

I've been trying to ignore The Facebook since I started steeming but until Steemit has direct messages and better community features It will be difficult to cut the cord entirely.

Well, you may be right. Time will tell. Yet, the potential for more good things, seems a little greater. The network is still growing.

Es así, @vigilantrespawn. Después de conocer Steemit se me hizo la duda de qué hacían las otras redes con nuestros relatos, fotos. Ustedes se imaginan lo avanzado económicamente que estaríamos si en vez de estar conectados en facebook, hubiésemos estado en Steemit? saludos

Absolutemente! We need to take control of our own resources. And push the Facebook censorship out of our way. Too often people are thrown in Facebook jail for expressing their personal opinions.

There is some sort of censorship here too though. I think whales have too much power. If you say something a whale doesn't like, you get flagged. Also, it's like some people try too hard to be nice and not really express themselves so they can get upvoted.
