RE: STEEMIT community is popular, but what will be next?
The question is, how do you find them? There isn't a good method right now, unless you watch New (very exhausting) or find them on one of the other rankings where only a few categories gain mass appeal. The upcoming following feature will help, since you'll see posts by authors you like, but how to find new authors? Again, the same issues arise.
i made my last post because of this very feeling :/ https://steemit.com/steemit/@egjoshslim/why-are-people-getting-butt-hurt-over-any-post-that-mention-any-issue-with-steemit i love steemit but i feel the community as a whole do not care about its success. if they do they really don't show it sometimes :(
I understand the frustrating situation but we can't blame whales. Like @smooth said there are thousands of new posts daily. You can't demand the whales to sit 24/7 in front of the new page and check potential posts. They have a life too. I wish I had a solution to this problem. Will think about it, when I come up with something I will contact you.
Enjoy your Sunday
Edit: I just checked your status, you are a whale. Now it makes sense to me, thank you very much for voting new and good content here. Steemit lives from this :)!
But the follow feature is just going to leave new voices further in the dust. I use New. Exhausting yes but it's the only way I can find posts by people that don't already have a 6+ rep. Unless I come across them in comments which is a great place to spend time. As I have said in numerous posts I am tremendously bullish on the platform and doing what I can with my little minnow voice to help through an awkward stage.
The follow feature is sorely needed. Right now I'm trying to use tools like SteemWatch to help but I inevitably end up missing good posts anyway. Not that my vote is worth much but I still like to give moral support to the content I like.
