The problem with Steemit

in random •  7 years ago 

Steemit is an awesome platform for anyone to get rewarded for creating new and awesome articles.

However, with all the benefits comes the problems.

Just look at any of the #introduceyourself threads, how many minnows do you see like me?

Or to put it in another way, how many irrelevant replies do you see in the introduce myself blog posts?

90% of the hello there replies you see are minnows like myself begging others to take a look at what they have wrote, not that I make such comments myself.

How can we make Steemit a better place?

Have you seen sites like ArsTechnica where the comments section only comprises of article relevant comments? Not others trying to pull votes for themselves?

Steemit can filter out the spam comments, but it isn't doing so.

Alas, Steemit is just another blogging platform filled with people trying to get rich quick from cryptos.

It is normal. Let everyone do what everyone wants to do. I wouldn't think much about it. Start browsing topics that interest you, don't forget to browse ones that are general so you can discover as many authors as possible and start following the ones whose content you enjoy.

Try not to think much about the "get rich quick" part. If you consume, then choose the best for you. If you produce, try your best :)

Welcome to the platform, I wish everything work out for you. It’s not easy here but not difficult neither but just ask an extra effort, engagement is the key good luck I’m @goodaytraders Start by following people and they will do the same.

You have 2 followers dude. Don't expect a grand entrance. The system here is far from perfect, but the cream does inevitably rise to the top. Build real relationships and create unique, valuable content, and success is guaranteed.

Sorry if that seemed rude. I genuinely wish you the best of luck, and I'm glad that you hate spam as much as I do. Following you.
