I am glad you are able to speak your mind on steemit.
It will be awesome when all are able to speak and be heard.
To bad that most of the free speech folks do not understand what free speech is.
One day we all may have to answer for what we post on steemit.
It is on a permanent blockchain.
I wonder how many consider the the world is changing rapidly.
And what we say today may become quite a crime tomorrow.

Be free folks but better yet be free and smart!

The #punchline tag is solid for short jokes so check out some of the jesters there. I know you already endorse comedyopenmic (thanks for that), but plenty of talented starving jokesters who'd love to feel the lash of your backhanded sarcasm and give it right back. For example, I'm sure you always "sell high".

You can make money on Steemit even with one photo dont need to have an amazing article to rep some money.
Thats the reason i love Steemit!

Yeah, I am okay with that but when they bid for $150 that better be a damned good original photo. I can concede to like $10 for it. That seems fair in my opinion.

amahovac93 (63) · 7 years ago

Well it is very important who is making a blog and how much steem power he has.
If it is a whale it doesnt matter what the photo is he will recive 150$.

justinashby (61) · 7 years ago

Correct. However I can downvote and comment about how I think it is an unfair amount. They may or may not listen, you can still say something without fear of being banned.

Yes but then again on the other hand they do deserve it after all they supported steem when it needed the most.

As long as there are transactions to fill the blocks. It is a damned shame when the price goes down people stop posting. Keep posting! Stake more SP!

I am a fan of individuals who post on the regular it lets me know there are still people out there who find value in whatever they post.

Hi berniesanders - While I agree with you to a point, don't you think that having whales with massive Steem Power can be problematic? Would you agree that they have the power to dictate what's allowed to be seen? Sure, we can post whatever we want, but a whale can flag our post to oblivion. Is Steem really what 'we' make it or just what 'the whales' make it? What are your thoughts on this?

Nobody can prevent any other post from being seen, no matter how much SP they have. Flagging doesn't send a post "to oblivion"; every flagged post is still entirely visible for anyone who wishes to look at it.

Steemit is a great hope for people like me. We are trying to provide as good as content to steemit to be successful quickly. But the strange thing i have observed is that some crap posts are making decent money and some excellent posts are going unnoticed. I am unable to figure out what to do???

I heard about #steemit 5 months ago; then I started searching about it & found it quite profitable if I do post quality blogs but when I learn the mechanism of #steemit that how we can earn, I found it quite difficult because getting whales upvotes is like asking money from enemy & using bots is not long term strategy. It is my opinion, peoples opinion can be changed.

Now I am using steemit for sharing my limited knowledge, I left earning on steemit If I earn so well & good If I don't I would'nt get disappointed.

I mean, you CAN do that...I suppose really it all comes down what people like, but we need a diversity of content to keep people coming back. If everything ends up being shallow, or just a semi-nice picture with no story behind it, this site will be very small and niche, and never really get anywhere. The high effort posts are important.

I try to post 2-4 posts a day. Most of them go into some type of challenge or contest. Photos posts are short, ulogs are long. Others are in between. I have people who upvote my posts with their autovoters and if I don't post, I don't get the votes.

I often find that a short post I threw together quickly will get more interest in the comments than one I worked on for a long time. The photos I hesitate to post sometimes get tons of interest.

And then I do a lot of commenting like this, in places that interest me, and places that I might get upvotes for my comments. So I appreciate your short posts when I see them :)
