RE: Dash Is Making Itself User Friendly And Steemit Can Learn From How They Do It
i do like your comment thank you @denmarkguy and @j3dy, but i would like to add 3 points :
- "" encourage "inactive" accounts to come again : YES and NO :
depending the group these users belong : youth, 20-30,30-40 etc....and their background : developer, artist, housewife, gamer, ......, i think it could be successful as well to put effort on bringing new users happy to get a payout of 1.00$, not greedy just having fun. - Dash was introduced 3 years ago, so we could also give Steem a little time, and focus on suggestions to improve Steemit.
- For the messages and interaction the steemchat is working well, and i see a lot of entertaining event happening like #steemitphotochallenge, STEEM Cup Series contest , Sports Football, #steemitculinarychallenge, openmic, memechallenge, and more
@littlewhale, there are good points, but it's important to also remember how people use web sites... additional apps and community features need to be integrated seamlessly under the greater Steemit interface-- as more people join Steemit, the "next marginal user" is going to be less and less "technical" and will just want everything to work in one place... otherwise it becomes *"too much hassle." In this case, specifically talking about peer-to-peer contact... who'd be using Facebook if you had to go to a different site to send a Facebook message?
And yes, we definitely need to give things more time. Even twitter is 11 years old and still trying to find a business model that's income producing... and it's a HUGE platform with 300+ million users. A lot of the "selling off" we're seeing is probably due to early adopters taking profits... they were never here to be long term investors, just to make a profit and go. This happens with "regular" companies all the time... some of the "angel" investors cash in as soon as the company has its IPO. So now the long term buy and hold people start investing for the longer term. But we DO have to build something here worth investing in.
