RE: @utopian-io - Contribution 'Approved/Rejected' Analysis - 30th March - 5th April 2018
Interesting to read this, but I am still trying to understand utopian.io — from the perspective of someone who's not a techie or developer in any way whatsoever; purely a "life blogger," self-help writer and spiritualist. Even though I keep seeing Utopian everywhere... along with people getting MONDO upvotes from Utopian... wouldn't this really be a pretty specialized gig?
Just an honest — and slightly puzzled — question.
Bright Blessings!
Hello there :)
Honestly, for someone who is 'not a techie or developer in any way whatsoever', I am going to struggle to promote utopian-io to you.
I don't mean to sound patronising or negative, it's just that some level of interest in Info Tech/Computing/Systems is required. I would be a fish out of water in so many categories, and wouldn't focus my attention where I didn't feel i had knowledge or something to add.
However, there are topics/categories discussed above that do not require a great deal of IT knowledge. An 'Idea', or a 'Bug-report' can be submitted with just screenshots and a description of the suggestion or problem.
Thank you for your comments, I hope that my reply is of use :)
I figured as much, but thought the question was worth asking.
I appreciate your time, and your reply!
Hey! I am a part of the Utopian team and I just happened to find your question here. @abh12345 (who also used to be on our team) is right - if you're not tech savy, perhaps we are just not for you.
Our premise is to reward open source contributors (people that do stuff, for free, for projects that are free to be downloaded, copied or even redistributed for monetary gain) with an upvote in the steem blockchain to promote this kind of work.
We are mostly seeking Developers to join our platform, although the most popular categories of ours are actually not closely related to technology. They are, and have historically been: Translations, Ideas, Issues and Visibility. On top of that, we also offer upvotes for work in the Copywriting category where more skillful writers can offer their help.
So perhaps even a non tech savy you you could find a project you love and help them grow while getting a decent reward out of it yourself!
