RE: Narrative (NRVE) new Steemit competitor

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Agree with you. Main problem of Steemit is involving new users easier. Even if you write great posts as new user, it is very hard that anybody will see that and this will discourage new users. Developers should change something about that...

Sort:  

I think it is the biggest challange that Steemits faces. I am preparing a blog post on this which I am going to post later on @weddingdresses. I hope the developers see this as an incentive to adress these issues pronto. Everybody who is on Steemit now is an early adaptor.

Let's not give away that head start and let's not stick our heads in the sand by ignoring Narrative and other such platforms that may appear;-)

Yes this is good. Don't ignore possible competitors.

Thank you for the update. I can't begin to say how much I appreciate seeing, and how much I would urge you to continue, being transparent with the community like you are in this post. It's such a unique experience, for everyone, to be the co-owners and co-creators of a community project liek STEEM. We all want it to be the best that it can be and we are all incentivized to contribute where we can. So please keep on giving people the feeling that they are on your team and with you on this crazy ride in this new blue ocean we call

Thanks 😁

No thank you :)
Am gonna follow you and can't wait to see what you gonna post next.

Please tell me where you can publish a new blog or just content and be successful from thr beginning. Of course you need to climb a mountain first and it will geteasier over time. You can not just expect to be famous with your first post, even if it would bethe best blogpost ever written.

Waht would Steemit really help is actually confirming new registrations. I know quite a lot of people who are waiting already 2 weeks or so.

I've wondered about people complaining about how hard it is to get new posts seen as a newbie myself, and for the reason you state. On any blog you expect it to be crickets except for however much you promote your post by linking to it in other places or paying to "boost" it.

I think the thing with Steemit that makes people have a different expectation (so be disappointed) is that this is a mashup between a blog and social media. On your own website, you know no one is seeing your article if you don't drive them there to see it. But on Facebook, for example, you only joined because you had friends on there. So there was a ready made audience and the FB algorithm intentionally showed your posts to new friends a lot for quite some time.

Here on Steemit there is the expectation of an experience like FB because it is on a platform, not one's own website. But there is no algorithm here sending people to you! And for most of us there isn't a friend/family network already here to "introduce us around." Friends of friends aren't suggested for us to follow. In general, it's a lot like having a blog on your own website, even though it's hosted on a platform. We should feel grateful we have the chance to have articles seen at all before we have collected followers.

Exactly. Steemit isn't just fot everyoen but for people who actually wanna blog. For these people(us) it is rather easy to find readers tho. :)

We will se how Narrative will work. Now we can just guess acording to whitepaper...

Thank u for sharing!

Good post !

Keep it up!!!

It's an exponential function too, because as the site scales up, discovery tanks. Inverse exponential functions like that are never a good thing.
