RE: Steemit Alternative Surfaces on the Internet. Your thoughts?
Maybe not, but what is Steemit? IS it a social media platform as advertised? Not really, social media like FB & Twitter is filled with random posts and updates about people's day, or what they just did. Or, much of it is just re-posts and shares, many that go viral. Many that are not content created by the original person before it goes viral. It's a good thing on social media when I share a Youtube video, or a Coindesk article, or a picture that I did not take, but I like these things and share it with others. Now, there is a difference in copy/paste and pass off as work your did, and sharing like we do on social media. But, Steemit is starting to feel like a blogging site, not really a social media site. And that's not a complaint, it's just an observation. It seems like people who share good content on here, are not really rewarded, and that's fine, but in reality, that's not social media as we know it. Good, original content on here is rewarded, and that's fine, but that makes it feel like another blogging site.
