RE: While I support SBI, I still heavily promote, and rely on organic votes.

in #steem5 years ago

I actually checked your previous post that was being downvoted.

I wouldn't have done that bad, but personally, that post wouldn't even pass my probation scan for my #teammalaysia newbies.

(I would have sternly corrected them in DM for that sort of post)

Sort:  

Haha. I understand.

But you must also take into account that you can't expect every post to be professional quality or even close to professional. That just isn't possible. Not in a social network comprised of all kinds of people from all walks of life.

The post was made in just about under a minute, with underpar equipment (my lousy telephone) so it can't be other than social interaction. But condemning social interaction such harshly in a social network will inevitably ruin the social aspect of the social network. Will the network be able to be called a "social network" if you make people shun social interaction?

Maybe I am missing something. My point is, if the post is not receiving much anyway, where's the point in downvoting it in the first place? And like I said in my post critical of what @mmmmkkkk311 is doing, I would fully understand his downvote if I were making unjust amounts with such post, like when a certain whale did self-upvoting simple one letter posts just for the kicks of it. Mine wasn't like that, people upvoted because they wanted to, and SBI just happened to upvote that post. Which could have happened on any other post since SBI is content agnostic.

I make some good and some not that good posts, but I am not a fan of downvoting from malice even if the post is not of a stellar quality.

That's all.

That is where local communities (or international ones) that are hands on with newbies are important.

I think his base "justification" is no blind upvotes , even though he was a bidbot maker.

I must say that his downvotes sometimes are most of the time un-called for, and a person trying to play hero isn't going to work either.

If I would really go on a downvote spree with that power, I would probably take my time and write justification and improvements to the writer.


Besides, social interaction from Facebook itself never had money. 😏

So to my personal point of view money driven interaction doesn't will not harvest longterm friendship and loyal followers (who couldn't care less of the pay)

The only unfortunate stance is that the rewards ties closely to trending; so even a post that is extremely good content will go unnoticed over general shit posts (I am not talking about yours) that farms for profit.

At the end of the day, it is an individual point of view. Some would love your work and others would just care less and be a meanie.

(ps: I think quick posts.... WhereIn and Appics would serve much better)

Maybe SBI can later restructure its reward strategy for a more even up and worthwhile way for a win-win ecosystem.

But it does. Plenty of money, for Facebook. And I don't work for Facebook, I don't even use Facebook so for me that point is kind of moot. What other people do with their time is their own business.

I don't have a phone capable of running these apps. Even @eSteemapp is a bit too much for my phone at times. I don't even see the difference, it's the same blockchain and the content is still visible to everyone. Wouldn't make a difference what app I use posting the photo from, it's still the same photo.

Maybe they can, but I wouldn't know what that is and how it would work better. @MarkkuJantunen told me Yesterday, that maybe they should upvote only content that is upvoted more. But I don't know. Not all people post every day and/or have stellar content that everyone would vote for. Also, SBI is not giving out 10 to 100 dollar upvotes anyway, the votes it gives are really tiny, so it wouldn't even matter.

I think SBI needs a curation team to do that.

Basically the notorious crusader says SBI is ripping people off lol.

I am pretty sure there's a better way to strengthen the community upvotes.

And yes, unfortunately Appics is not good. But I think WhereIn is less draining than eSteemapp. Even a 4 GB RAM Hwawei the whole app freezes (for eSteem)

Curation would definitely break the concept of the "basic income" in SBI. It would then be just another curation project.

Oh, and thanks for the tip, I'll check out Wherein.
