Why I'm switching from Reddit to Steemit.
I recently became heavily involved in CryptoCurrency and the CryptoCurrency community. In the past, I have enjoyed posting on Reddit and occasionally interacting with some members of their community. I have used Reddit as a tool in the past to verify the quality of my content, or the quality of a third-party's content.
I have recently realized that the opinion's of a majority of redditor's has become very salty and biased. For some reason many redditor's like to flag some new emerging startups as "scams" even though they aren't. There is a terrible post on IOSToken in r/Cryptocurrency. I myself, ranted about it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Crypto_General/comments/7tkmhz/the_social_disease_on_rcryptocurrency/?st=jcywkhg6&sh=ed75b813
about the nasty post that someone created here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/7t33vt/scam_alert_iost_recently_released_on_binance/?st=jcywa8zc&sh=c5e35de9
You guy's may appreciate how I referenced Steemit in such a positive way. There was a post on Steemit about IOST that was 100% truthful and positive. Anyways, you guys should check them out: https://iost.io/
They have some pretty cool technology and I think that they will accomplish some great things in the future.

Welcome to the platform. I am also a recent joiner, and I'm glad I made the switch.
r/CryptoCurrency and other crypto-trading sub-reddits generally don't appreciate criticism. But still there are some amazing people interacting and engaging with the community. While steemit is still growing as a platform but I find user here avoiding confrontation like reddit or even twitter.
Absolutely, and that was the general point I was getting to. Steemit is a much friendlier community than reddit.
this and many other reasons that you will find here!!! keep in touch, great post!!!!
