This platform had a lot of good content once, but now it's almost all a bunch of arse...
Is Steemit all over, or is there a part two to some strange yet devious plan? I've long been wondering, and like an itchy scrotum, I just can't help coming back for a poke about from time to time.
But it really has all just gone to seed hasn't it?
Pile of shit more like, with endless ponzi sellers, I will be glad in a few weeks when I never have to log in here again!

Yeah - its a shame - we've seen what it can be, and also what it is now (not much) - but I have never seen any other platform come close to what this was at its best, and I suspect that no others will, so although I'm pretty negative about it all these days, I keep sharing some of my blog posts on my @frot account and would really like to see it recover. Not likely, but I must still have a tiny hope or I wouldn't have done this post.
Having my @sift666 account "blacklisted" doesn't give me much optimism though!

What did you do to get blacklisted?

I trolled a post a few weeks ago by calling out all the bots "commenting" -
https://steemit.com/steemit/@steemitblog/steemit-update-leaving-survive-mode-and-beta
And then I had a look at this bot's habits:
https://steemit.com/buildawhale/@sift666/psb5eh
They appear to be putting about 50-100 people a day on a blacklist (which they don't display) - in fact that is all @buildawhale posts about! - presumably so they can steal our money - and they give themselves a $10 upvote for doing variations of the same blacklist post once or twice each day - unbelievable...

I was wondering what evil deed you had done. :-)
Pity everybody didn't find out about it, then they might stop using bots.
What happened to "teamnz'?, do you know, were they blacklisted as well?

I don't know, they just stopped voting about 10 days ago - so I've taken back my delegation as part of my powering down process - I really hope I'm wrong, but at this point I'm very pessimistic about the whole platform. I use bots on everything I post on my main account as an insurance against being flagged.

I thought you and your boss were part of the instigators of teamnz.
I hope the site remains, it was a good idea at the start, maybe it will return that way again

No we just gave them a delegation.
This is my current opinion of what is going on:

Would you rather be on Minds.com or Gab.com or Banned.Video or Bitchute or Brighteon? Well, I like Steemit and it has potential, regardless.

I'm sort of morbidly fascinated in trying to work out what on earth the aim here is!
At this point I'm guessing they (the overlords) ultimately want to trash the Steemit part of the platform, and make it just Steem the crypto - leaving an opportunity to drive a bunch of bloggers over to some new platform they will set up - recently I thought maybe Pocketnet, but that seems to be utter crap, or maybe something new based on the scam crypto EOS.
I used to think they were so damn cunning and always a step ahead, but lately I'm thinking they are just totally incompetent...
As I powered down my Steemit accounts I put the Steem into more solid cryptos - Etherium, Bitcoin, Dash, Etherium Classic, and Monero - and now only hold coins on the Exodus wallet which can be shifted about fast.
These days I think Steemit is all a big scam, set up to make $ for the insiders, develop social media bots, and promote crypto scams, but possibly it became a threat to sheeple control because in 2017 the standard of some of the posting was getting very high, so they had to fuck it up - or maybe they really did just fuck it up by mistake - intent or incompetence? - the million $ question

I haven't used the "Steemit" for a while. I use Steem on another platform. I just don't like ads.

Now that we've seen what could be - Steemit in late 2016 and 2017 - are we forever doomed to disappointment that the entire internet has failed to not suck?
