RE: Update on Taking Steem to LinkedIn
Interestingly, I found very positive reviews on Quora and some other social forums.
I'm not surprised. The guy who created it tried to suck people in and probably went to a lot of effort to make it appear genuine.
It stole content from Steemit and posted it under randomly generated account names to give the impression that it was an active Social Media platform. There were a couple of genuine people who thought they'd earned thousands of dollars... but they didn't. It all disappeared.
I wrote a post about it some time ago. Oh, more than one post.
The few negative reviews are baseless and hilarious.
They're probably the only true ones.
Ahh... Now I remember. I read those posts back then when you posted.
I misread your comment. I thought I read - Voilk proved Steem is a scam. That's why I said I couldn't find anything about it on the Internet.
Anyway, what they did is pretty scary. How can users be locked out of their accounts in a decentralized platform? 🤔
I was talking about Steemit here. (:
I'd be amazed if it was ever decentralized. At one point, he claimed to have sold it which was a somewhat bizarre claim. It's nice to see that it's mostly gone now 🙃
