Although sports is not my area of interest, it is very discouraging to hear that this can happen--and might happen to other tags.
Am I not focusing on optimistic news concerning SteemIt? Or is there really a dearth of good things going on?
I've only been here a short while, but it seemed so promising as a platform for artists, and geeks alike--an almost utopian euphoria consumed so many of us hoping to be part of this exciting era of cryptocurrency.
And now, it seems to be crumbling in front of us. Am I looking at this all wrong? Could these changes be a good thing? It's hard to understand how.
There is a lot of good going on, it's just harder to find when tags are flooded with what I consider spam. I don't mind seeing others share a link to a news article and commenting on it, or a youtube video with comments. I'm concerned that something similar could happen to other tags. Especially if someone creates a bot to spam channels with only links and videos.
Check out the @robinhoodwhale group. They find some good posts. You can follow their comments here or check them out in steemit.chat.
I have just "followed" @robinhoodwhale--thanks for the heads up. Being a natural worrier, it's a little depressing to me to find so little to get excited about the past couple of days. But hopefully, as you stated, the good news is getting lost in all the junk floating around.
If you need any serious help Patrice, let me know.
Im available.
