RE: Moving to hive
Another part of that equation, is that those $5-10 a week customers are driving demand for delegation leasing, leaving the active voters with little to no vote value, with the impression they will make bigger returns from renting to the bots, while the bots just rob all the other voters of curation rewards because of superior SP.
Hence why I stopped using.
1: The ROI for the user is too small
2: I was getting larger upvoted from curation groups and friends that I made... Since I stopped my SP has grown by ~60% (I was at 1000 SP and now I am at 1600) and that was a few weeks ago that I stopped so I mean it is possible to grow without the use of bots.

Hello,
Steemit has been an incredibly fulfilling experience. As I write, every day I come across posts with threads like this, rich in insight and historic context to the daily grind on Steemit. It's like a new modern city built, in computer time, in a blink of an eye and features all the deeply-entrenched infrastructure problems old, ancient metropoli around the world contest with. Massive growth potential, bound by access to limited resources (wallets) and sources of replenishable energy (bandwidth), crushed in a parade of furious robotic-like production. What is to become of social media?
I joined Steemit as a lucrative alternative to legacy sites like Facebook and Instagram that lacked genuine engagement for my content (*Illustrator). Facebook is no more a marketing website as much as LinkedIn is social networking for businesses, just that Facebook handles a personal account and a free optional Page for your business, group, or cause. Steemit takes the model beyond the binary offering of personal-business, but consumer-producer for all. I believed that Steemit would provide possible tools, simple for everyone online the former social networks to easily plug into earning real value for their original content AND a whole new platform for active influencers online to bridge the gap in traditional jobs and the digital age of internet publishing. I admit to have earned some income from the use of bid-bots, but further question their use as the price of SBD continues to flucuate moving forward. Also, with an increasing amount of user activity and new users to Steemit, reaching higher number of audiences for your particular content is already feeling tight. It's a race going on my feed everyday.
Any insights on what to make of Steemit for the near future of blogging, could it be the next Reddit, Tumblr, or big waste of time?
Thank you for sharing this!
