Steemit gets Roasted

Steemit and other like-minded social blockchain networks like Synereo gets roasted in this article. The article tries to explain how the platforms operate especially Steemit. Unfortunately the article takes a decidedly negative tone on Steemit. Judge for yourself. Link to article is below.

Thank you for relaying the information. It was mostly a thoughtful article, although with some easily glossed over claims that should probably be questioned.

Also, the sentence ;

Steemit looks much more like a blogging platform than a social network as we know it

. . . stood out to me.

Say what? I know what she means, we do need some more "Facebook"-like features and engagement to make it complete, but as "blogging platforms" was how social media really got started in the first place.

Yes social media came from blogging. I guess for her Steemit is just too different :)

About right for Steemit I would say, its not decidedly negative, its just mildly critical, thats all. I would say that most on here don't like this article as it doesn't praise Steemit to the heavens as a lot of posts do.

Steemit is turning into a place where money is everything and sycophancy is everywhere.

hmm well I try to just contribute with the best of intentions :)
