It seems to me that social media is dominated by just 2 or 3 platforms. Facebook, Instagram (owned by Facebook) and Twitter.
We then have a whole host of niche type sites that co-exist really just around Facebook and Instagram and are allowed to because they don’t tend to step on the toes of the giants. I don’t like the monopoly that Facebook has built and I’m not really sure how it has been allowed to happen. Change is desperately needed.
So what is the future of social media?
Well, we are all the future of social media. We decide where we create our content. We influence the bottom line, the $ value. Our choices as a group shape how we are treated by social sites.
So are Steemit And The8App the Future Of Social Media?
Both very different platforms. Steemit built with a blockchain foundation giving steem dollars for great content for blogging. The8App the social site that is challenging the likes of Instagram and Facebook by returning 80% of the sites ad revenue back to members and with it's sponsor feed allowing members the chance to be sponsored by big brands regardless of their following and social influence.
Here is a short 1 min video that sums up what The8App is
Let's hope this is the future. And we will be able to say that we were there supporting from the very beginning of the dawn ehehe

I like that Steemit does not depend on ads. I don't think they could pay the masses in the ways that Steemit can. Of course we don't know if the Steemit model can scale up. It's going to be interesting to see how it develops
