RE: So I decided to try out PALnet...
Dear @geekpowered
It's my first time I'm using Palnet and I found your publication very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with this platform.
I'm just wondering if there is anything special about this particular front-end? We've busy.org, steempeak.com, sportshub.io and probably many more. Is there any particular reason to focus our attention on Palnet? Any idea?
I kinda like the concept of PAL more than the reality. It means that people can make their own communities.
what do you mean with those communities? Is it something Steemit doesn't have?
Yours
Piotr
Not really yet, as far as I know. There's 50/50 curation and a free flag every day. The main thing is that it lets you earn PAL. You can then Stake that to reward more PAL, or sell it, or apparently buy a vote from a bot being run by aggroed and the group doing this whole Steem-Engine thing. I'm not sure I see anything that really makes it worth it, other than the extra money. If they can grab enough people that join their community and want to use it, that might be a good enough reason, but if they can't, there will be other communities that come along soon enough likely.
Well, you could create a community for pretty much anything...lets say comic books. You could build a front end that shows all the comic tags. Then you could have a bot that lets people reward others with your comic coin. Staking those coins could let you reward comic coin with upvotes, and in turn get them for "curating" those post. This then in turn gives people extra incentive to talk about comics and curate other comic posts.
