RE: What's Important to Steemit’s Longevity? - Inspiried by @anyx ‘Tragedy of The Commons’
I think you make some great point @razvanelulmarin, and I certainly consider you one of a few friends on this platform too. Ever since you mistook me for @wingz on chat ;) I think the main problem is the Curation Bot's...(some humans) at the moment. But luckily, they are getting squeezed, and curation rewards are dropping rapidly.
There are certainly elements that need to change for the greater good of Steemit, and I believe this will happen. I do however think that, like centralised competitors of Steemit, having followers is how you get noticed. In time, I think that, the reason users follow other users will change from financial (curation) reward, to content enjoyment.
The user base needs to stop pursuing rewards for this to happen though, and to use Steemit for it's entertaining content...
totally. Not to kiss your ass now but I do find your writing clear, concise and to the point. It's relaxing to read. What i'm saying is not that the people trending are not delivering good content, is that it kind of presents an united front of "established" people making the most bank.
Clearly, the way we will curate, the way whales will curate in the future will change and evolve.
It's exciting to be here and see it all!
Well said! (No ass kissing intended here either.)
