RE: 👨💻 10100 Condenser Redesign
Obviously, income is the most important thing for all users, but income cannot keep users on the platform for a long time. Many users regard the steemit platform as part of their work every day. Their daily task is to post a post and make numerous comments based on their own situation. Likes and comments will allow many users to participate, but the user's stay time will not be lengthened. Because everyone will think that this is a job, rather than joining because they really like it or there is content that attracts them. If the steemit platform can be the first thing that users think of every day when they are bored or leisurely, the platform will last longer and the number of users will be more, just like China’s Douyin (tiotok), which Chinese users open the most every day. This software, however, they cannot make any profit from it. But because it is easy to use and the content is interesting, I spend a lot of time on it every day.
Thanks for your thoughts, your first sentence really jumped out to me…
I don’t agree with this although…
I do agree with this.
(from a blogger’s perspective, an investor’s perspective will differ.)
Perhaps it’s more common now for users to join purely for rewards. We see this in their behaviour - swarming towards whatever intiative sc01 is curating. But historically, users joined because they wanted to be away from the traditional, over-sensitive mass social media - I.e. freedom. Perhaps their opinion wasn’t mainstream enough or controversial and got them banned. Many users still post despite the rewards. Be it for the social element (there are some great authors who only comment now), or to proomote themselves or their business as part of a wider engagement program. Or simply because they’ve made friends.
It’s these people who are here for reasons other than “obviously rewards” that join and stay. The “rewards users” more often than not, don’t last because they’re almost always disappointed (which this post went some way to demonstrating).
As far as the alternative layout that I’ve implemented on my localhost, do you think that it improves the attractiveness of the platform in the hope of attracting and retaining the more interesting authors that visit?
The interfaces you designed are great. They look much more beautiful than the existing interfaces, but it would be better if the layout of the left and right columns could always be fixed on the interface. I know this is very easy to achieve using js, so Users can quickly jump to the page without having to slide to the top every time to jump.
Thanks for the thought...more often than not, the left and right columns are longer than the depth of a single screen so it might be strange for it to "pin" in that way - I haven't really considered it before.
