RE: Mark Zuckerberg Eyes Cryptocurrency For Facebook In Attempt To Take Down STEEMIT.COM
You’re being a bit harsh, but I do agree with you in a much less aggressive way. If Zuck isn’t buying out Reddit, Twitter, etc. Steem isn’t even on his radar.
Also in regards to the clickbait title you’re 100% right. Like all social media SteemIt has a clickbait problem. I’m not sure how to solve it though.
I like the idea someone suggested of having a dedicated flagging pool rather than needing to draw your flag funds from your regular steempower.
Or just differentiate between downvotes and flags and charge for downvotes but not flags. Flags are free but reserved for content that is explicitly against the rules.

Clickbait cannot be resolved easily, I think. Take a look at YouTube. We all know YouTube is now owned by Google, and we also know Google is a tech god. But still we always see around rampant clickbait titles and clickbait thumbnails on YouTube.
These platforms are not even a direct competitors to Facebook, so I see don't these as directly threatening Facebook's dominance.
Steem on the other hand is a different monster. It is a blockchain and any social media sites can be cloned and build upon it. In a way, Steem is an indirect threat to Facebook for sure. If you take a look at the number of engagement on the trending posts on Steemit such as this, it should give you an idea on how powerful the platform is and how viral it can be.
clickbait is good in a way but yet its not...lol
He tried to buy Twitter many years ago and Twitter said NO.
He may buy whatever company he wants, but not Steem. Steem is a decentralized platform and is community-driven. He is fighting against community members, not a single CEO.
Twitter is a publicly traded company so I think he could now.
simply don't click on click-bait, I chose to look for simple laughs. Quite honestly Facebook and Steemit have very different ways that they are put together and different things all together that drive the platforms. Here it's not only content but the ability to possibility make something on said content right on the site. Facebook to me is a place where I chat with more friends and family or connect with other artists. The two site have entirely different driving points to me, I feel if I can see that so can Mark and he wouldn't waste his time on this as he has enough on the plate keeping facebook on the up and up without mixing crypto's in.
I agree to your post
I would bet monies there are quite a few facebook shill accounts on steemit.
If this article were on Facebook the title would be "17 Reasons Why Mark Zuckerberg Is Trying to Kill Steemit!"
