RE: Repost & Reminder: The Rise and Fall of Digg.com, a lesson for Steemit
I agree I've been thinking about that... a common goal is what we need to realise. It seems everybody's got so attached their own ideas and opinions that we've forgotten we have a common interest and goal... This money is supposed to bring us together, not to divide us...
I could see that happening if the money was being distributed more fairly but too many people don't believe in "fair". And I understand that life isn't fair but the less fair the system or community is the less likely people want to be a part of it and that's life too!
I remember steemfest got me and everyone so riled up about steem and nobody was too concerned about the price because we recognised this is a long term dream. I would love if there was something like that to push the community back to positivity but I don't even think the whales who supported steemfest before would support another one. They probably don't realise how much good that festival did for the community because they can't see how those with the biggest flags and auto votes could possibly be responsible for the loss of positive energy...
Certainly the community needs to be pulled together again... Our ideas for the direction of the community may clash but we have a common goal and perhaps the short sighted need to be either weaned out or given binoculars so that we can all get back on the same page!
