Hi again MenO, do you follow Bix Weir at RoadtoRoota? His recent post on YT today did not have good things to say about EOS so I'm hesitant to jump into to something they are doing. Bix is just one crypto guy out there, however, I do respect his insight. Any suggestions or thoughts are appreciated. Thanks, Jennifer Mac
Hey @jennifermac , I would say that its too early to have a final judgement regarding the project. There are some things that worry me as well, but then again the developer is someone who I feel comfortable calling a genius. If it was some stranger, maybe I would be slamming the gavel, but not with Larimer.
Regarding the First comment you made, I made that youtube video long ago now.. In steem time its probably vintage. I just probably make a new one with some updated ideas regarding the subject.
I'm personally did not enjoy bitchute in the slightest, i found their interface unfriendly... I realize that's anecdotal, but its not for me. Minds is news to me... I just did a quick search and I had no idea this existed..
I'm of the opinion jennifer that the future of the internet will involve blockchain technology. So if I had to say, whats the "safest" bet, if even saying that is accurate, is to get involved with it as early as possible. We are headed in that direction, and what anyone who is trying to succeed on this changing ecosystem needs to take into account is that there where those that said the internet will never take off, that it would not be more remarkable than a fax machine... some of those who did not adapt in time, ceased to exist.
Thank you @meno really appreciate your insight and agree that blockchain is the next phase the future will have to adopt so we have early mover's advantage.
Personally, what I'm doing with Steemit, Bitchute, and Minds is uploading to all of them. Perhaps Bitchute will start to upgrade or change or go the way of MySpace. With Steemit, I just have not been able to find a strategy and even took a course which basically he used bots to get ahead. Do you think Steemit will start to crack down on this? Honesly, there are posts with that get a lot of money and likes that really are poor quality. I've considered is buying influence through a STEEM investment. Anyway, I'm looking forward to your next video or blog with tips.
EOS - I hear you. The comments from Bix Weir were pointed at Brock - Bix's video on YT was Cryptos and the Darkness - it did bother me.
The content quality issue of Steem is quite obvious to anyone who appreciates honesty. The truth that its really two issues combined into one.
So, when new accounts create good content, they have to play something I like to call "Whale lotto" you have to be lucky and be found by a whale. So, not only must your content be good, but you also have to appeal to a small audience, the whales (someone that can give you a big boost) and then hopefully the sustainable followers will follow suit. (the ones that will continue to support your blog)
The truth is that the best way to grow on this platform is a combination of relationships, personal development, consistency and good content. Taking the time to have conversations like the one you and I are having is key.
Speaking of key... allow me to extend an invitation to the backstage of steem, something you might not be aware of.

Thanks so much MENO, your comments seem good and sound. I will definitely take them into account! And will look into the link you provided.
From your comments, it's a confirmation that I need to spend just as much time reaching out to influencers in discussions and relationships to really grow here. Thank you again!
