RE: Key Differencences Between YouTube and Steemit/DTube
Man you are so right about the comments! Sometimes I feel like Steemit is a bit of an echo chamber, and that people are a little too nice, if ya know what I mean, but it sure as hell beats "Die Bitch" just for posting an a cappella video! Haha, I don't miss the crazy of YouTube!
On steemit people try to be as polite as they can because they know that they will get either same response or lose respect eventually leading to failure and loss of earnings for them. The earning here depends on others upvote thus trolling here would result in almost no earnings.
Yeah it's hard to find a happy middle, but positivity always trumps negativity in almost every way! I guess the reason for the excessive kindness may be because the system is almost designed to penalize those who are consistently negative. Makes for a warmer, more supportive community but an "echo chamber" too nonetheless as you've interestingly pointed out! Thanks for you thoughts Beth, I love hearing others' opinions like these ;)
