RE: What is steemit ? Is it really FaceBook?

in #steemit7 years ago

Hmmm... Good question! I tried to explain to my friends and colleagues what is Steemit about. I tried the Facebook approach but got weird looks. I guess we need to stop define it as other platforms and make it our own. Yeah, you could call them clones. The first big social media platform was MySpace. Since then, social media changed and... evolved?
I believe there has to be a balance and allow steepshooter to thrive, too. I mean, I get tired reading and reading all the time. Single photo posts with a little text breaks that routine.

Sort:  

recently and im talking about super recent i watched a video of two steem witnesses kept saying its facebook and that made me make a post really because either it is or its not stop lying to people and confusing them

FB is the only thing that people can relate to, it's simpler to gain new users like this. But then, some of them will leave because this really isn't facebook. You can call this bad advertising, maybe.
