RE: Time To Make STEEM A Huge Success By Dropping The Focus On "Quality"
Okay that's fine, but what actual action are you advocating? This seems like a piece without a purpose except expressing annoyance at people who are interested in so-called quality posts.
Are you saying we should all vote for what we like? But we already do that. Are you defending self voting? Or against flagging / downvoting as motivated by quality? Or are you asking people to just stop talking about quality?
I would contend that the rejection of so-called quality posts as the only use of Steem has long evaporated so it's not clear what the point of this post is.
In other words, it's not high quality. 😜
The point is to call people to stop the "crusade" for quality posts.
If so then it's about telling people what they should post about. Which is pretty counter to the spirit of things on the platform.
Exactly. From time to time someone appears complaining about the "quality of the content is killing the platform".
I finally realized one small thing on the last days that change my whole perspective:
One single payout is not a good incentive for professional content creators. Why spend time to create something awesome that you Will only recieve once when you can publish on YouTube/medium/your own blog and recieve for life, as long as that content is consumed?
It Just makes no Sense.
That is why everyone should treat as It is: a social media (quick content) with benefits, therefore anything is valid (except spam and plagiarism. That is bad anywhere).
And you can always flag what you dont like. Btw, we should embrace flags top. Shit, create that downvote Button already!
This post raises awareness to how things are, have been, which encourages and empowers some people to have more confidence in doing what they were destined to do in whatever they may be doing, writing, posting, recording, Oatmealing haha, sharing, or whatever, and it can help give some people some peace in knowing it is ok if they're being bullied for something they might have done or not have have done here or there or anywhere. Some of us can, if we don't already, promote Steem to become more like Gab and Minds in some ways, as they don't have a 20 second comment wait as we have on Steem for example. Gab has paid subscriptions and Minds allow peer to peer money sending like Steem. It is good to talk about what we like, dislike, even as others have already talked about some of this before. It is a step in the right direction in the long run.
Fair enough, it's good to encourage people, very important even. But I think this post is going beyond that and I'm curious about what people are taking home here. Good to get your perspective, thanks.
Awesome.
