RE: The Death of Steemit's Curation Trails
Thank you for your support, it's always appreciated. I always find it sad when a new user of this platform arrives and finds all of these conflict within the system, but Steemit has always been full of problems because this is a very new and unique way of running a social network. One of the biggest obstacles here is that this system involves money, and when you put together our human hunger for money, with our human need to interact and communicate with others, you get the best and the worst of human nature. If you are a good person, with good principles and values, look to unite with those who are like you. If you are a greedy, money-hungry person, that's okay, we have those people here as well. We're all looking for a way to co-exist, and it is not an easy task, but we are experimenting to see if we can make it work. If we can't, in the long run we will fail, disappear or be replaced by a better system.
You are so right...you couldn't have said it better
like everything ,a reflection of our society...so is this
I really liked your approach, so logical and not at all emotionally affected
Absolutely! When dealing with this kind of very serious issue, which is making me a lot of enemies, it is very important to be as logical as possible, and to not be emotionally affected by the negativity. These kinds of fights are not new in my life, so I'm comfortable with what I'm doing, and I'm comfortable with my logic. I believe in the principle of "Occam's Razor" where one should "shave" an issue down to the core of the problem, then with that simplicity, find a solution!
I'm only five months into this platform and I came in with a lot of enthusiasm for this project...I thought it was based on solidarity and justice and that the goal was to grow the platform and spread the idea so that more people would come, but now I'm facing the fact that this is all just theories and the reality is very different from what many people want to claim.
I don't really know what is happening lately but i'm facing that many people with lot of power and influence are changing the rules for their own personal benefit and without giving any explanation to anyone
may be a result of the fall of the market and more specifically the steem
I am from Greece and I have seen it with my own eyes...that when the market is high and there is money around then all is well but when the market goes down and the money is dry then the masks come off
I can't believe that they can't understand that such actions can only hurt the platform but they obviously don't care much about it
So pity and so dissapointing :(
