RE: Minnows & Newbies: The Comment Section Is Your Greatest Asset
So basically it's about spending all day every day on your computer, socialising online instead of living in the real world? And how is this supposed to be better for anyone? I'm really not getting this. I wanted to find a platform to share some of my more 'controversial' topics online because fb and instagram don't respond well to my views, but I'm pretty disappointed now that this platform works like all the others, the most popular and highest earning content at the top and the rest way down in low never seen. I don't want to spend all day every day online, I have a life, a job, kids, books I want to read, movies to watch, animals to feed, a garden to weed...how do any of you find the time to build up your blog and profile to something worth doing and making some side earnings from? It's got to be worth it doesn't it?
Unfortunately Technology is not perfect in the socialization aspect. The world has become much smaller in a sense due to tech like this. IT is good but yes it can also be a bad thing and can actually hinder socialization which I think we see the impact of today.
I too do not want to spend all day online. But I know I can use Steemit to my advantage and spread light to much more people. I wish the world wasn't this ladder that everyone has to climb in order to make it. I am only one person but if you know me by now I try to do my best to help those who don't get noticed. This is because I have been outcasted and overlooked my whole life so I understand other people struggle in that regard.
It is definitely not easy work trying to build anything whether it be a business, blog, etc. It takes work. But yes it is worth it because you learn diligence, patience and you learn to care for those around you. For me I just make time to build here on Steemit all while juggling life. It's not impossible to do just very tough to do.
