RE: What Would Boost The Price Of Steem? - Sponsorship? - 575
Disqus is shutting down it's internal blogging platform at the end of the month, there's accounts there with over a hundred thousand followers....but they blog current media content news, some follow the fair use doctrine when posting and require posters to do the same, it would be advantageous if those in the higher echelon were to extend a hand, maybe some delegation to those who have run in the top ten rankings on the platform to come use Steem for their blogging platform with a requirement they continue to use the fair use doctrine. It's a prime opportunity, would bring in potentially hundreds of new users. They are all over there looking for new homes.
Discussion is here: Saying Goodbye to Disqus Channels
However the discussion is moderated so pointing out SteemIt as alternative might not make it past the moderators.
They are an interactive group of bloggers who follow different sites on the Disqus Platform, some with the same avatar or various other avatars as they mostly participate on a certain site but going wondering under different avatars because they are clique"y" that way...once I think they are disbanded as a whole things will more than likely fall apart and dissolve over time, in other words I just don't see it being the same or people wanting to go to a ton of different blog sites to keep up with everyone. If they relocated to the same site that may not happen. I guess one could be concerned with losing moderators or losing their audience, without an audience you don't need moderators. I think it's a shame Disqus is doing that as there are many elderly, handicapped or just plain odd balls like myself whom that site has given a outlet to, though I don't participate as much as I use to I still go there a few days out of the week to post stuff for those very reasons. As a matter of fact I attribute that site and one particular person whom I have never meant as literally saving my life, if I hadn't come across that connection I can't honestly say I would still be here. I think they could have handled it differently, maybe went to subscriptions which many people thought was a good idea, that may have gotten rid of a lot of the sites causing the problems...I don't know. Then maybe some wouldn't want to deal with a crypto site either...so there's that also.
Well, have a
