RE: What Is Your STEEMit Goal?

in #steemit7 years ago

I got rilly rilly TIRED of FaceBook trying to make me do things I didn't want to do.
I got sick and tired of the ads.
First I used a program...don't recall it's name right now. It would allow me to block most of the FaceBook generated content on my page that I didn't want to see. It had about a hundred boxes for blocking stuff...I checked most of them. Facebook didn't like that..they gave the author of THAT program hell. It got so bad that facebook wouldn't even allow the name of the program to be posted. I tried another one...FaceBook Purity I think...same thing..then another and another. Each one would work for a little while the facebook would mess it up.

It got to be a constant FIGHT with the platform...just to do what they advertised that I could do....engage with people and talk. They neglect to mention that I had to talk about approved subjects and waste my time with about a million ads.

I heard there was another way. I saw an ebook on Amazon Kindle about Steemit...I bought it...the rest is history.

Well, interesting.

However, I assume that if I wasn't on STEEMit and I wanted to shoot the breeze on particular topics, I would just join a forum/message board. Just like the old days with BBS, however I didn't chat much with the BBS, I just looked for games I could play.

right.
and people are building that very thing on Steem Appllications as we speak.
ChainBBS for example...a BBS.
and there are games galore...
and other stuff that I don't understand..

It doesn't have the same feel or smell.

And?
Build one yourself to be what you want it to be?
OpenSource and do that....GitHub..Utopian (catchy name?)
