RE: Steemit, Like Life, Is A Popularity Contest - Embrace It Or Devote Your Efforts To Other Pursuits - Your Problem Is Not The Reward Pool, It's Persistence & Commitment To Community
I would say lol if it was funny...Oh, I can't help it, LOL...Truth be told, the way the platform is set up, those with the money and the mike continue to rule. But, Steemit is still far more 'rewarding' than any other social media market currently available, other than perhaps YouTube which does pay if your work meets their standards. Let's face it, those who own things make the rules. Play or go home. Which do you think they hope you will do? Good choice, PLAY, of course; because then the game can continue and they can continue to earn...I mean...we can continue to earn...LOL.
I am truly humbled. I am experiencing the steem in Steemit! And, it is giving me the momentum to believe there is real potential to grow. In all my years designing blogs, writing posts, commenting on the work of others, the most I’ve ever gotten are thumbs up, atta girls; but NEVER a financial reward. To some, this may seem as pennies in the bank. I see it from an entirely different measurement. I see it as an entirely unique platform that could, and possibly will surpass many of the mainstream social media sites currently running the market. I say, “Praises to God for Steemit.”
Okay, Steemians, let’s keep steemin’ along!!!
Yes, playing, and enjoying it is a good attitude, the same as I have to crypto investing - a few hundred $$$ and just enjoy 'playing' (rather than maxing out yr credit card NOW like someone on here suggested - easy to get caught up in the mindset of 'shit, I could earn enough on here to just escape 'the man' though....
I do think we all make a LOT more per view on Steemit than we could on Youtube, too.
No doubt! Between the YouTube algorithms and demonetizations, its no wonder why some of the larger brands are seeking to expand their base on Steemit.
