I can't wait to leave this platform. Invested about 30% of my portfolio a few months ago to see what would happen with this platform but I gotta say after also investing a considerable amount of time understanding how the community functioned I didn't like what I saw.
It favors whales and bots too much and it isn't a good place for any content other than cryptocurrency news. Even at that the content is usually thats taken from another source like twitter or youtube.
To go further it's useless, i can't get any info on here of any value that i could get elsewhere, i get that it's early, i get the idea i get the fact that people do use this, but even if it were to pop that would be under the assumption that regular people outside of crypto would use it for stuff much like reddit or youtube, I don't see that happening. Maybe if they buy out steemit sure, but i thought this was decentralized so that's not going to happen
I got in an interesting conversation with a OCD curator on the last post I made on this but he's one of those moms basement fellows, so of course he flagged the post even though it didn't violate any of the rules. It's this steem culture of don't you dare leave, sell or power down or we'll come get you. Speak negatively on the state of the platform and you'll be shot down. The idea that i have to kiss up to and send money to whales or invest enough to protect or promote my posts through selfvoting bots just doesn't promote good content.
Stop the bots produce better original content.
