RE: Why I’m About Ready To Quit Steemit: The Disillusionment Slingshot Onwards To Greener Pastures...
B-E-T-A
I can understand getting bored. But it seems like folks expect too much of a beta product. Anyone remember what fb looked like the first year? How much did anyone get paid for posting on it? #justsayin'...
Yup. Great point that I bring up ALL THE TIME lol :)
I think what people are starting to realize is that the money is the only thing attractive about the platform. It is enough to attract people now, when it's the only game in town, but as competitors come onto the scene, we're gonna see a serious exodus. Fortunately, Ned has mentioned that there are a lot of new social features coming soon so we can cross our fingers and see what those are.
Totally irrelevant, I'am afraid. This is 2016. The market has moved on. Expectations have changed. The costs of producing quality have decreased.
This makes about as much sense as saying Steemit is better than the clay tablets the Code of Hammurabi were chiseled into. Yeah, sure, but it's not competing for my attention against clay tablets.
Not that I spend loads of time on any social media, for that matter. Social media exhausts me. I'm searching for deep work that is meaningful to me and pays enough to cover my lentil bill.

Not irrelevant at all. Your reply indicates that perhaps the point of the comment was missed? @piedpiper obviously got it.
You: Expect less. See, here, Facebook 2004/5.
Me: This is 2016, brah. Apples and oranges.
You: You've misunderstood my point but I'm not actually going to attempt to clarify it.
Me: :rolleyes: It's up to the communicator to make his point, not throw a couple words and a screenshot down and blame the listener for failing to exercise ESP.
Sigh.... The problem isn't misunderstanding, it's being rude about it. But maybe it helps that Gabe and I are connected telepathically. Of course, you upvoted his comment... lol.
