RE: Exaggerated Self Importance: STEEM Does NOT Need You!!!
Just today I wrote some of the same complaints you mentioned. I think this is a wake up call. Thanks for saying it without sugar-coating.
I'm not discouraged and I wasn't when I wrote that things aren't fair. Steemit is better to me every day. The longer I'm here, the more connections I make. I've seen amazing content here.
I think it would help us all out if the trending page were not a garbage fire. That has nothing to do with the earnings. It's just that that's the first thing a non-member sees. If steemit hadn't been personally recommended to me, I'd probably want to turn away if the trending page was the first thing I saw.
That would be a shame because like you, I think there is an amazing opportunity here.
From a growth perspective, many are being introduced for D.Tube so even though they sign up via Steemit, they immediately jump to D.tube.
It is hard, at times, not to get discouraged. Nevertheless, we need to focus upon the long term. This place is going to explode, with millions of users signing up. In a short period of time, those even with a few hundred in their accounts will see like big fish to the newer people.
Oh good point about D.tube. That was my introduction to the steem blockchain too. I planned to post daily there but it was too frustrating to deal with.
How long ago did you try it?
I havent loaded a video on there in a while....from what I understand, some of the updates cleared things up....Or did they not?
The last time I tried was nine days ago. I went back and checked which blog I used YouTube for instead.
Very interesting. It has been months since I tried to post on D.Tube so I cannot comment to the ease of uploading these days.
Thanks for the update...something to watch.
I should mention that I've just had my internet wiring updated. It's possible that it was a personal problem with failed uploads. The day I switched to youtube, everything was messed up on the blockchain.
I may have unfairly blamed d.tube. I just realized it and I apologize.
