RE: Inviting Philippines-Based Content Creators To Post Under #tilphilippines ("Today I Learned") & Things You Didn't Know About Trending Posts!!!
Always a good thing supporting ur fellow lads. I don't agree the trending page is by say the best quality posts. A lot of the same people are advocated on it. Not saying it's all bad, definitely not, but the curation game is a known fact and problem Steemit is facing. https://steemit.com/curation/@thecryptofiend/the-curation-conundrum
Well, we all have different views. It depends on how much you can see. Curation is a problem but doesn't really matter? Let your vision be staunch and nothing phasing you. Among other things, you have platform where you can dent in legacies and a community of great minds reachable to you, these things alone are awesome. Apart from rewards, there are opportunities. On steemit people knock on your doors and i tell you there are opportunities. Overall, i just touched on one aspect of curation and there are many but when you look at it critically, it is not a problem. It is not all about quality on steemit cos quality isn't only measured by your posts. some people created unseen quality in sleepless nights behind the scenes but people tend to measure this quality merely by a blog cos that is only what they see and some old steemians have been here for so long at the base of steemit's success and maybe earning only now and werent earning months back when steem was 7 cents but now people start to see them earning without look at history. Plus there is the curation incentive side to it as well which is subjective and can't be scolded either cos hey there, what if someone has like 1 million steem power and decides not to curate at all, it is not a crime either. Bottomline is, look beyond steemit and onto the steem blockchain, then bring your visions and dreams on it and build and enterprise. Do your thing! There is no competition if you sit above the competition! Those are my tips really and your comment is amazing! You will notice that i also pinpointed that there are time "a red tomato" will trend; yes becos trending posts arent only quality, there are deeper reasons and many of these reasons are bigger reasons than is viewable merely by looking at the blogs
Wow, that was hell of a reply ^^ Sure we all have different opinions, and I do have a lot of love for Steemit, but it's still in beta for a reason. It ain't flawless and hopefully in time will progress even more. Yes, Steemit helped me a lot to induce my love for the blockchain and crypto :)! And done me a lot of good! But I am kind of a pessimist (by nature I suppose) so I tend to look at things that are wrong, which is important as well in order to improve something.
For sure. That is love too when you spot the wrong but even the wrong, i sift it for the good in it and use that as well. I don't see you as pessimistic based on this comment. It is more like care! Yes, steemit has flaws but flaws are good too. No dirt, no soap! Part of the steemit addiction or stickiness comes from its ups and downs.
