RE: Growing Unhappiness with Upvote Bots on Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

If you mean @sneakyninja, where The Daily Sneak is published, then yes. And it's a huge time consuming project I wish I had never started!!
Okay, not really. It's helped me to learn a lot, and to find quality content like yours. But it has been time-consuming.

Sort:  

Yes I can imagine it is very time consuming indeed! Where do you see it going? Do you intend to work on it being profitable?

It's already profitable, but not profitable enough to fully reward the time spent on it. I would like to see it move toward becoming a community-driven project, with people contributing their own curation commentary, and then talking to each other about why different posts were selected and what it means to create good content.

Ironically, that will initially make it less profitable (some of the promotion costs will be indirectly passed through to contributors, instead of recouped as profits), but it's more a labor of love.
