Steem - An Honest Look Inside

I honestly don't see what's wrong with content from other platforms being crossposted on Steem. The more use Steem has the better. Engagement on some Steem app and reposting stuff from other platforms do not contradict each other in any ways. That's totally unnecessarily zero-sum thinking.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing per se, but Steem just being something where your posts are automatically cross-posted without any originality won't be beneficial for the future.

Who says Steem would ever be that?

It could easily become it when people see Steem as a simple medium of automatic reposting content.

Which people? I really think it escapes a lot of people, particularly those who have been around since 2016 how much Steem has already changed and will continue to change in terms of diversity of content. Steem is already not predominantly a blogging platform. The combined traffic on DrugWars, Nextcolony and Steem Monsters already exceed the combined traffic of all blogging apps.

My argument was directed on your statement and the social part of Steem.

I see. But it's up to the voting stakeholders to either monetize that content or not.
