Social networks is something very important today, because many of us express ourselves at various times, either to tell something about ourselves or to give our opinion and currently we are obliged not to transmit everything we feel for fear that the social network will take it as wrong and we suspend our account, for that reason many of us are looking for new alternatives and Steemit has been very kind to welcome us with open arms. I have read your lecture professor and everything I explain is very well explained greetings, this is my homework.

Centralized social media platforms.

When it comes to these social networks, they are the ones that we commonly see in many advertisements doing marketing, among them we have Instagram, Facebook, twitter, each of them has its staff directed by an owner who throws a series of rules so that they Users interested in entering that social network, before entering have consideration about those rules, if the rules are broken, the developers of the social network have at their whim the total management of all the accounts and information of the social network, if someone does something inappropriate, the social network system can lock your account indefinitely. For most of these networks there is only one key to enter and it is common to recover it very easily through the methods of the social network and we should not worry, the entry for these social networks is free. In this type of social networks, many users live from day to day working hard within the platform, either in advertising or in their work community with the fear that they cannot publish certain things because they may be blocked.

Decentralized social media platforms.

Currently many users are complaining about centralized social networks for their rules and prohibitions, that is why many are looking for other alternatives that are more flexible and more open to the world, many of these people seek decentralized social networks, because they do not They are linked with anyone who controls their environment internally and they are free, they will never block users for being free, there are no rules for the use of this social network, an example of a decentralized social network is steemit, on this platform you can do practically what you want without being afraid of account suspension, to access this platform is completely free, but you must be careful what you do with your account, especially in steemit there is a payment system, but if you make a payment that is poorly made There is no going back since there is no one to claim, the same happens with passwords, if for some reason you lose them, you will not be able to enter to your profile never again.



Difference between centralized social media platforms.

° You can delete your account without prior notice

° You can recover the username and password.

° To earn money you must carry out a process notified to the owners of the network.

° You cannot post certain things.



Difference between decentralized social media platforms.

° I will never delete your account

° You cannot recover the username and password if it is lost.

° You earn money from the start through paid publications.

° You are free to express yourself.



Question no 2


Which One is The Future of Social media ? Decentralized or centralized Social media.(answer must be written in own words).

In my opinion, the social networks that will predominate the world will be decentralized. Because it gives them what centralized social networks are taking away from users. These are my reasons.

° Everything you publish cannot be manipulated, deleted or blocked by anyone, because it is registered in blockchains.

° Nobody tells you to follow a protocol to use them, you just publish freely.

° Nobody can block your account.

° Above all, decentralized social networks are going to be the most sought after in the future for the simple fact of being free of freedom of expression.

° Many of these networks generate paid voting income right from the start.



Question no 3


How steemit decentralization social media is best than Twitter and Facebook.(answer must be written in own words)

If we go from the beginnings of centralized social networks until today, we can appreciate a large number of complaints and especially from users who have been restricted by company policies without prior notice, compared to steemit that we have never had a complaint of this social network since it began, since its storage system is based on the blockchain and there is no entity that controls the content of users. The steemit platform is superior to social networks such as twitter and Facebook because since you start you can win votes in which you exchange for cryptocurrencies that are the basis of the platform, these cryptocurrencies are highly volatile and may not cost anything today but in a future are very valuable and your income is much higher, on the other hand twitter and Facebook their payment system is something that its process is slow and you need to do a procedure to carry out the process.

On the other hand, the privacy of the publications is something that you should not worry about in steemit since you will never be blocked or afraid to openly publish your content since having a blockchain record of its content, what it can do is give you a negative or a positive vote, but there will never be an account suspension. In addition, the decentralized social network of steemit has the possibility of entering groups for which you feel comfortable to participate and thus gain learning or add what you know how to do in life and therefore earn many votes which is equivalent to money.



Question no 4


What do you say? How do Steemit social media change the lives of millions of its users?(answer must be written in own words).

It is very interesting how the steemit social network has changed the lives of thousands of people, for a large part of the population it has been of great economic importance mainly due to the pandemic, many people were unemployed or do not have access to their jobs, the Another part of the population is linked to the population that is in countries in extreme poverty, Africa, Venezuela, Pakistan, India, Cuba, Uganda, among many others, thousands of people who are tired of depending on a centralized social network and they want to try this type of decentralized network, the entire population in general described above steemit has changed their lives because they can make their purpose that they want to do, since they are free to make the publications and you use your creativity to create good content that attracts the attention of thousands of people and through this you can generate additional income from the comfort of your home.



Question no 5


How can we make money with Steemit's decentralized social media.(write your own experience).

Fortunately, there is this social network as important as steemit, which offers you great opportunities to generate income through voting, if you want more of this you have to enter many communities which each has a theme for you to relate to. , once here you have to put all your effort so that your publications are unique, striking and peculiar, these publications have to be well written since the content creator or the administrator will be able to give you the vote and many times the administrators have a lot of power to vote and for this you can generate a lot of money.


This platform gives you the opportunity to be benefited by just creating content, from recipes, landscapes, your own content, and most importantly you always have to support all users who have good content so that the steemit platform continues to grow. Something very important is that not all the time you receive the benefit of voting from the administrators and it may be your turn today and not tomorrow, so that is why we must do our best to create unique content.

Conclusión


Today we describe in a general way the functions of centralized and decentralized social networks, through this it is at your disposal which one to use, in my opinion I choose decentralized social networks, since with a simple publication there will be no one who can change it and if it is It goes viral, everyone can see that it was not copied from anywhere and the best thing still no one can eliminate it but only the creator, I think that these networks, apart from the benefit of free expression, provide the economic benefit that many people have sought throughout your life, people who for some reason have been unemployed or are in a difficult stage and are seen in looking for any job to get money, steemit gives them that opportunity and not only steemit but also the people who generate important content as well as you teacher, as curators and as people who contribute something new to tell every day. Thank you very much for your attention, see you in the next task.
