RE: What's a Valuable Steem User ? And how to retain a valuable user base on Steem ?
Dear @roxane,
Thank you so much for your support. Such a post , somewhat dedicated to supporting my work, makes me blush.
Just a few comments:
I am not an Utopist (I try not to be)
I am! And I try to stay!
People like @arcange can decide to shut down SteemSQL and leave the platforme for a lack of recognition, for a lack of support.
This is not something I would do, at least not because of "lack of recognition or support". I simply want to stay break even for the costs of the infrastructure and why not earn something decent for my work.
What if everybody starts to monetizing their work ? It will just be like the real world... And not everyone will have access to all the ressources.
Even on Steemit, resources are limited and some will fight to get the biggest part of the pie. Steemit is just a digital transposition of the real world.
Does @arcange still need to proof that SteemSQL is worthy ?
No. Nobody cares, except those who use it.
Take care =)
"Steemit is just a digital transposition of the real world." You are so right ! Even the best technology on Earth will not change human beings's hearts, will it ? Caring about the others is more the consequence of a certain education, life experience, natural empathy (acquired in former lives ?). I think with Steemit we have a powerful tool to spread the best over everyone. Do we want it ?
