RE: Steemit, We Have a Problem! WTF is With This Organization?
There was a bit of an uproar when we switched to one payout at 7 days. When I first started it was a payout after 24 hours and then a second after 30 days. I still have mixed feelings about that.
IF I was more organized with my own material, I would be posting my Steemit blogs on my website. Actually... I've automated the process to send my blog to my WP site and save in the drafts folder. I do that because WP doesn't like markdown! sigh
So, I've got a lot of evergreen posts that I still need to re-edit on WP with lots of helpful, searchable tips for new people but... I'm never there anymore!
Ahem! I prefer "task master" LOL
Now get back to work! < wink >
yeah it seems if you're going to use your own blog, it should get the content first, but that's not what Steemit wants. And I don't see much linking to outside sites much more than credits.
I try to write evergreen posts which hopefully stand the test of time. I've even noticed a lot of new comments on posts that are nearly a year old and it surprises me! I wonder how they found it? Google search maybe? I think a good compromise is to allow content creators to select (at least) 10 posts that could keep earning in perpetuity. But having a proper profile page is probably necessary to keep that shizzle organized.
I'm noticing a lot of steemit old timers don't have much hope. They've been singing about change for too long w/out results. Hoping new voices joining the choir makes it louder so it gets heard. We can hope, as long as we don't start preaching to the choir ;)
I am ever-hopeful. We've got some bugs we need to sort out. We've got a lot of voices clamoring for change; a lot of people saying "I WANT" but don't come up with solutions. So... we hardfork, experiment, and see where we land. It's not a bad thing. In fact, as uncomfortable as change is, I've seen my Estimated Account Value rise and fall but I'm still making 100% more than on any other site. No complaints here. My tip: Leave your expectations at the door and just create. That is what keeps me in my happy place even if the sky is falling.
My biggest deal is the organization. Don't like chaos, and I can't provide technical solutions, but I thought I had a pretty good conceptual solution.
