RE: Vote Steem for Social Network of the Year in Hackernoon's Noonies Awards
LOL! @matt-a stole your thunder and landed a featured post. But hey, that works too I guess.

Ahh, didn't ask for it. It's a group effort. I have 4500-ish followers so maybe my personal post (made after reblogging this) got a few more eyes. We're in first now, that's all that matters!
Totally cool with me!
We're all in it together!
Doesn't surprise me that stinc won't come near me, or give credit where it is due.
That's what happens when you ask difficult questions in the steem town hall show about people who run bidbots being allowed to be consensus witnesses. I suggested that anyone running a bidbot shouldn't be allowed a consensus vote as a witness. Radical idea, to stop the biggest leaches of value in the steem ecosystem to not be able to decide the future of steem.
Biggest problem with steem to my mind is allowing the destruction of our value proposition by sone of the people with the most privileged positions on steem, but if you voice these opinions in a public forum, then you get put on the naughty list.
Similar, happened when I let everybody know about the Brian Armstrong tweet on twitter asking what coin they should list next. I made a post and drumed up hype on twitter with all the #seven77 people. I even DM'd andrachy on discord asking if they'd contacted coinbase to indicate their willingness to work with coinbase. Was met with the same silence that my comment about bidbot owners got in the town hall show.
I gave up long ago on the idea that anyone at stinc will show any different behaviour in how they approach outsourcing to the community. Or supporting those who take this marketing work on off their own back. They're only interested in 'yes' men (or women), not addressing the difficult issues. They act like this whole thing is a high school kegger rather than a multimillion dollar fintech business. Ha ha, Ned and his famous 'playing guitar' interview style proved that.
NED: "What's that you're saying? I can't hear you over this guitar I'm playing. Speak up." 😆
But still, I will keep promoting steem like this as I want to see it grow, and see some reasonable return on the 6000+ steem I've earned on here through 2 years of writing and curating for curie.
P.s. none of this is aimed at you matt-a, the result is what matters. I'm glad everyone learned about this poll and that we're now number one. Also, great that you got featured m8.
As you say, it's the results that matter 👍
