You Think Banana Program Is Silly?... in Fact Its Mission is Very Serious... The Future of Steem is in Our Hands

I am def going to be trying this. I agree with 1000%.
Q: What can you do with the points on Partiko once you earn them?

I hear they will be converted to upvotes but not official yet. I talked to the developer on many occasions and he has his shit together. Very professional and also attentive to user feedback.

Nice. So If I understand right you can earn banana points on their dapp that would feed back into Steem upvotes later. So similar to how an SMT would work. A micro-economy with it's own set of rules and UX within a larger economy? I hope the UX is good b/c that's one thing Steemit lacks in and of course better more fair rewards system.

Hmmmm I’m not really wanting to commit to a Banana Economy due to my ADD. I have trouble sticking to one idea. I want flexibility so I want to be able to change all the time, if Partiko has its own coin I’d adopt that I think.

Partiko has its own coin I’d adopt that I think.

They probably will eventually and DTube if successful. It would be great if they do because it creates a positive feedback loop into Steem value, much like ERC-20's do with Ethereum. "The Dapp Social Media Economy". That's plan anyway with Steem. I'll try Partiko.

The @partiko app is really something. I'm getting hooked to it because it's so easy to use. The points system does also play a part in making it more addictive.

stellabelle (75) · 6 years ago

Yes it’s safe to say that I’m 100% addicted already and it definitely takes the edge off not getting rewards .... it’s like a band-aid approach but as more and more people use it, I believe the points can become more and more integral and important to the ecosystem. Partiko also watches for scammers and calls them out on spammy behavior.

Surfing steem through partiko is quite easy on phone rather than browser. In steem whoever have more SP, have more influence in the platform. But for the beginner it's requires a lot to get attention. But to build the community bigger and stronger people need to support each other else it will take a very long time for steem to become another facebook. If community grows then automatically people will be benefitted.

What a great view of u @sabelle.
You know what a lot of whale account do not care for the minnow. Then, you come with Banna Program which make a lot of people engage it and get reward for joing your program. A lot of my friend quit on steemit because they made a good content with sometimes take a long time to provide a good content but then they didnt get any upvote because they are new and not someone who have a huge SP.
U really help a lot of people. Thank you so much. Im gratefull for that.

I'm glad you're telling it how it is. I think a lot of us--especially if we've been around a while--feel dismayed (? I'm not sure what the word I'm looking for here is) by the platform and all the bid bot BS, circle jerking and lack of engagement going on. I know I feel a lot less bullish than I did even 6 months ago and it's not cos of the steem price (although that doesn't help).

I knew about partiko but not about the rewards. You've convinced me to download it and give it a go.

I heard they will be converted to upvotes but it’s not officially announced yet. Personally I love getting acknowledged for my activity and I suggested this a long time ago (to deaf ears). The Partiko team has already done a lot of user suggestions. It might be because they are already in a business world (I hear the code dev works for AIRBNB) and AirBNB is heavily invested in User happiness

"shit racket" are you referring to Steem Silver Gold? I get a guaranteed $3.00+ upvote every day from them. Without that vote I am consistently at like $0.80 per post. Delegating has been building my Steem Power better than buying votes.

I don't have time to curate like I used to, so using my stake to build my stake made sense to me in the short term.

Same shit though Mike, you work with the people and engage and retain, or you sell out and offer dust to those who take the time to visit and curate your content.

Eg. You might as well be self upvoting haejin style and making the same returns. Both, uncool.

I like any app that makes it easy and fast to access steemit. Most e-commerce companies pay special attention to mobile apps and give incentives in terms of discounts. They know lots of people use their mobile phone, that if they are many on mobile that they'd have a higher customer/retention system. I like the program you introduced, sometimes I think we are a little too serious on steemit. A little fun won't hurt anyone :)

I downloaded Partiko last week after seeing it mentioned in one of your posts. It took me few days to stumble across the Points feature - I still can't remember to open it up and check in every day even though it is my primary way to browse the blockchain and make comments.

I like the notifications feature and the fact that it works very smoothly on my Galaxy S7 cheapo-phone and our slow wireless network. Partiko is way better than Steepshot, which gave me so much trouble that I was pulling my hair out.

Thanks again for recommending Partiko.
