Steem It Reblog Button

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)


Steemit just came up with a new feature yeah it's called reBlog, just like that small re and big Blog I guess to persuade steemit users that it's just another blog shared from their fellow steemer. Is it that simple? I don't know. The main thing here is that rebloging doesn't create a new post just reposts an existing post. You know just for fun. BUT...there is the big BUT here. The feature could possibly be abused by the members by just reposting their friends content and returning the favor and vice versa. That could potentially flood the timeline with irrelevant posts and cause the same post to appear multiple times.

Another view is that if members will post too much content from certain accounts, it will create the need for accounts that follow massive number of members to un-follow like crazy to stop the flow of new"old" content.

So here is what might happen we need to give it some time and see if it's going to work. People that put and reblog so much crap will be muted or un-followed. At the same time it will give us an opportunity to push and up-vote new users with good content that will never be discovered otherwise.

Sort:  

I believe it will take the test of time to see if people abuse it, until then, and new Ideas are worth testing.
