Steemit VS Minds|All you need to know

in #blog6 years ago

Blogging images.jpgWhat Is Steemit?
The easiest way to describe Steemit is as a cross between Reddit and a personal blog. Like a personal blog, you can post whatever you wish and longform posts are encouraged. Much like Reddit, you can also share content from anywhere on the internet, and posts are upvoted, downvoted, and commented on by other users based on their opinion of the posts’ content.

How Do You Get Paid for Content?
There are actually several ways that Steemit users get paid for using the platform. The simplest ways to earn money (“STEEM”) on Steemit are:

Creating content that others enjoy.
Curating content through upvotes and downvotes.

Steemit

Earn crypto for involvement, posts, and upvotes. Clear rewards for each post and comment
Strong and growing community. Entertaining. Secure design.
Tough to get started earning Steem for new users
Interface, especially for posting, is difficult but slowly improving

Minds is an open source and distributed social networking service, integrating the blockchain to reward the community with ERC20 tokens for various contributions to the network. Users can use their tokens to promote their content or to crowdfund and tip other users by subscribing to them monthly in exchange for exclusive content and services.

Minds has become popular for its commitment to privacy, decentralization, optional anonymity, radical transparency, free speech, and user rewards in contrast to the surveillance, secrecy, censorship, and algorithm manipulation occurring on many proprietary social networks.

Features include newsfeed, video, images, blogs, groups, search, encrypted messenger, crypto wallets, exclusive content paywalls, promoted posts, tipping, and a token reward system. Minds maintains cross-platform functionality with both web and mobile apps.

Interface is easy to post blogs and especially for short posts w/link. Really like that, similar to LinkedIn
Pretty mature interface, even out of the gate. A great start.
Rewards seem unclear. Been posting and still don't understand if or when someone gets rewards
Setup for accounts, instructions for hashtags, etc. is vague. I expect the on-boarding process will improve over time
