RE: Lack of Content Discovery on Steemit!
I think a social network is a more accurate description of Steem than a content discovery platform and I think that is fine.
Of course I am more interested in reading and engaging with people I know.
I can find great content any time, anywhere with google. A social network is about engaging with others that you know.
That's an interesting way of looking at it, can't say that I fully agree with it though. I personally envisioned more something like Youtube, but then for written content. I personally want to read blogs that are genuinely interesting and not necessarily of people I know.
But yeah, everyone has their own vision and that's totally okay!
On Myspace I had a lonely account with no connections.
When facebook came along they hooked me up with my old friends, interests, and people that I was interested in.
I moved to where I could interact with people I knew or cared about their views.
Look, if you share a picture of your kid... I don't care. Looking at stranger's kids is creepy.
I also don't care what you had for dinner or your political views if I don't know you from Adam. The more I know you, the more it matters.
