Look at it this way. Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, Snapchat, all have a ton of spam, useless info, and scams. But they are all worth a ton of money. Why? Because all kinds of people are using those platforms. We will bound to have a lot of spammers as steemit grows. There will always be some bad apples. Do not think its fair to blame it all on Jerry.
Do you feel like the video is an honest reflection of what the average user will experience when joining Steem?
The difference between Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, and Snapchat versus Steemit is that people joined those services because they wanted to without any monetary reward involved. Millions of people use those services for nothing. Those services are worth a ton of money because they found a way to get a shit ton of people to use their technology not because they are paying them to do so. . .Big difference.
