RE: Don't hate the player, hate the game

That this platform is touted as being fully decentralized, censor-free and free-market about value yet, in practice, its' set-up and algorithm are an elaborate game of Calvin Ball in social engineering that achieves the opposite of what was advertised.

@jaimejean Are you sure you have your arguments on the right way around?
sure the incentives may be skewing things at the moment but this is a "beta" platform. Trying to guess the exact, finely tuned set of incentives to provide a platform that lives up to everyone´s expectations is futile, but I tip my hat to the makers of Steemit for trying. And I think through iterative adjustments, this platform has a bright future.

The second part about fully decentralized, censor-free: read the white paper and judge for yourself. It is a huge leap in this direction when compared to facebook and reddit.

Again the world changes only step by step. Be patient and supportive where you see a positive direction of cultural evolution taking place.

And please don´t be lazy! Base criticism on facts and keep it constructive.
