RE: The Only TIL that Matters Today
Reddit has been very successful in many ways.
Steemit has potential to be far more awesome and I hope that is actualIized.
For that to happen, it would have to be different of course to be far better.
Take the best parts of everything and build the "ideal" platform.
Of course better and "ideal" are mostly subjective.
Reddit has been successful at being ranked highly in search engines due to their voting mechanisms - much like Steemit. Other than that, it's a niche "social media" platform. They don't have anywhere close to the number of active users as most other popular sites. Also, their design is absolute garbage and has been for 11 years.
We can do better. We should expect better. We shouldn't be trying our hardest to be Reddit. Not even Reddit wants to be Reddit. They may be happy with what they have, but they'll always be on the outside looking in when it comes to social media. That's not something that ought to be duplicated here. If we want revolutionary, we should build revolutionary.
Agreed. ~
