Hello everyone I am @shahariar1. I am From #Bangladesh
First, let me mention the Steemit – the social platform based on blockchain technology – and the ways in which it has contributed to increasing diversity. But owing to decentralization and this its distinct incentive system, Steemit has developed the kind of community most people would consider open and diverse across the world. Here’s how Steemit contributes to promoting diversity:
1. Decentralized Platform
Steemit uses a blockchain platform, and thus there is no possibility for a single owner to regulate it. It has this decentralized nature to guarantee that the content is not prone to pro- or censorship by a centralized management. Most of the users coming from different parts of the world can make their comments and post whatever stories they want without restrictions.
2. Global Accessibility
Another main characteristic of Steemit is its worldwide availability. As it will be virtually based, anyone with internet access meets the requirements regardless of the country they come from. Thirdly, it makes a lot of sense to be inclusive to allow people from different countries and culture to get involved, to share their stories, and to learn from others. The platform’s interface is availability in many languages thus making it easy to access and suitable for use in many countries.
3. Reward System
One of the special features of Steemit it’s a reward system that encourages users to create and share the content. Contributors get paid in cryptocurrency (STEEM) allowing them to sell to real currency. This system put the idea of content creation at a leveled plain since users from all status in economy are paid to post contents. It provides ethnic groups who probably would not have gotten the chance to generate income from conventional content-sharing platforms, economic plurality.
4. Community Building
Steemit is comprised of many groups or clusters where people with various interests and in relation to various topics aggregate. These communities are organized and autonomous, as well as enable people to interact with others of mutual interest. The structure of the platform is so designed that it fosters the development of activity-based sets of like-minded people. It also assist in building culture of togetherness whereby people from different groups who maybe have not been in contact will come together.
5. Authoritarianism
Currently, Steemit has plans and programs that are meant to encourage individuals with limited voices within the society. For example, there are the projects of the community to support the content creators from women, minorities and other suppressed peoples. They assist in providing a constructive expression to the marginalised in society to give socities a balanced perspective when not given a voice by the mainstream media.
6. Educational Opportunities
It should also be noted that the platform is used as a reference for obtaining information. Readers can search for informative materials on almost any subject, including technical and financial, as well as art and humanities. The information contained within is plentiful and easy to find, meaning anyone can read it and improve themselves. Also, there are opportunities to incentivize the creation of a lot of valuable educational content, which also increases the platform’s diversification.
7. Promoting Communication and Partnership
Users of Steemit can directly reply to comments and even use vote for the comment to let others engage the post in a better way. One can use the block chain technology to upvote or comment on various post and this will take him through people with different cultures. By interacting with one another at this level, people change their attitudes and perceptions about those they previously encountered online, making the ‘net a kinder place.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the decentralized social media platform of Steemit, worldwide access, incentives, community development, voice for the marginalized, education and encouraging discussion and partnerships all serve to foster diversity. Steemit does its part in making the virtual world a diverse place wherein people can express themselves and be compensated for what they have to say.
