RE: Steem 24 hour volume is 3.4 million. EOS 24 hour volume is 1.4 billion. What does this mean to you?
I consider it a strength of Steem. I consider it a weakness of Steemit though. Steemit is a social media website, the first on the Steem blockchain. Busy is a late coming, quickly surpassing competitor that uses the same blockchain. Steem benefits from both. Steemit, not so much. I havent logged into Steemit on my PC in 4 months now probably. The site sucks.
I do completely agree with most everything you say. I always appreciate seeing you and Glen in my comments.
I would just like to note the irony of "When our children become greater than us, are we not proved great by their achievements." .. Steem was birthed from Bitshares, it proved greater. EOS is now birthed from Steem. Is your quote an indication of what is to come lol?! I know what you meant but i had to say it haha
Like I said I will hold my coins and go down with the ship if I must because I really love this place. It would be stupid not to point out the iceberg before we hit it in the hopes that someone turn the ship clear.
It also would be very beneficial if people could sign up directly through Busy, as it is they have to go to Steemit. Which means it is the landing page and should look and feel good to use.
I don't think anyone would desire you to fail to take advantage of a better platform, such as busy. I did try to use Busy a few months ago, and didn't 'get' it, so I came back to Steemit which is simple enough for me to functionally use.
I avoid unnecessary learning curves so that the time I spend isn't spent learning every new shiny UI, but can be spent using them.
That idea about signing up from more interfaces with Steem is great! Have you considered making a pull request on Github so devs can consider it?
Going down with the ship, if EOS or something derived from EOS is so much better isn't what I would expect you to do. I expect you'll see how much better it is, and start using it, and be there on the improved platform so deeply entrenched that you'll barely notice Steemit going down.
If it's really that much better, you'll profit from the improvement more than you'll lose in mere money in that case. Money is merely a veil behind which true wealth is concealed.
This is why so many people spend so much money on hookers and blow. What investment could be better than the glorious memories of an old man?
You are right of course. Though this community holds a place in my heart so I would most definitely feel it!
What could be better than the glorious memories? Why, more hookers and blow of course!
LEL
I too am quite fond of Steemit--but that's mostly the people I've been privileged to engage with here. They'll be wherever we're going, too.
