RE: [Positivity] Steem, Steemit and the Blockchain
Sad to hear your powering down @antimetica 😑 but I can completely understand. Steemit is a funny beast - taking loads of time while not really seeing much gains (for now anyway!). I have also thought about leaving a few times but looking forward to coming back refreshed after summer to give it another shot ☺
Aww @conradt I count you as one of my handful of favorite people on here!
Are you on Twitter or other place so I can keep in touch sometime?
You know what? It wasn't that there wasn't gains. It was that for me it was actually loss. I put money in, earned some, and loads of time and my vote was still 2 cents. I couldn't rationalize spending time AND also putting in money while seeing the devs just letting STEEM sit in beta forever and doing mysterious things. I suppose if STEEM ever went up in price then my vote would be worth more but I felt I was doing all I could do to promote the platform but the devs weren't pulling their weight. Well I'll come back if Steemit makes some improvements I'll certainly be watching and hoping :)
Thanks @antimetica. I think im in the same boat as you and feel a similar way. Steem has potential but hasnt met the potential and is just going sideways (has been for the 6 or months ive been here - hasnt been any fixes to any of the major problems on here).
Honestly i think that some of those who are influential here are more interested in lining their own pockets.
Im not on Twitter mate, and barely use much other social media. Im on discord but dont use that much now either lol! Seem to be going back to the dark ages
