Hi Jerry. The best way to speak with you is in your discord? Or here? I have zero problem thinking differently personally. It's what i've always done. And i think that different thinking has produced some crazy level value that i believe could be a benefit to steem. Love to talk! Of course you're kind of a big deal here, so i guess that could be hard to do at any depth or length. Hey, you never know. Alx
Apart from this post, you do obviously seem very interested in putting effort into steem and making it grow, and that's what i'm interested in, not adopting new sets of beliefs, several of which i've seen or heard no remotely convincing information.
We can agree to disagree on a lot of that stuff, and still talk about the more definitely IRL things that can be of great value to steem, like actual "IDEAS". The biggest and most supported ideas i've seen so far, seem to be copycats of external services provided off chain by many companies. That's not getting us to popular adoption unless those services get GREAT, technically, and in terms of how they work/result in production.
Is there a great idea here? Like something truly different from slightly different youtube clones? Utopian i have zero problem with. DTube seems to be putting up some original content. Zappl seems to have a decent chance.
Anything truly new that might actually give the world a reason to care that we exist?
Some of the genius here, NEEDS to be on truly original and innovative projects.
I would love your opinions at least on that. What do you see that's "DIFFERENT" [but good]
