Preparing for Halloween and Steemit in Decline

This picture I took yesterday night in the so-called Fischerviertel, the traditional quarter of the fishermen in the old City of Ulm/Germany. When I came home I was not ready for my bed so I went a bit online. When I had a look at Google Trends and throw in the word Steemit I got a surprise: What I found there looks a bit gloomy. The diagram shows the worldwide search for Steemit within twelve months. What is going on? What about the recent hype about steemit on this platform? Maybe someone can explain it to me.

The sites too complicated and there is far too much ideological propaganda which creates its own type of censorship.

I am afraid you are right.

It’s the global feeling of economic distress coming soon! People just get too depressed to think about the long term plan!

I guess steemit doesn't look like a real alternative at the moment, even with its fine blockchain.

It is a hassle to keep blogging while hope and expectations are not rewarded. English language ability is also a problem for majority of people to do well here.
There is no real free market mechanism! Everything is controlled and manipulated to some degrees! But it’s still much better than Facebook which never rewarded anyone!

...but it is not all in vain, because by expressing yourself you also develop your skills and understanding.

Well, things come and go. I don't think the hype about Steemit on Steemit can change this.
