RE: The Future Of STEEM
Peter, this is a great point and I think that this really depends on which way steemit or steem decide to go - a competitor for Facebook or a platform for dapps?
@nanzo-scoop did a good post not too long ago on this I think when he was discussing the impact of (or not) of SMTs and it really boiled down to which direction it takes. I think he was favouring a drive towards conquering the social media platform space (next FB) but it does seem like there are confused messages coming from steemit. Are they trying to head off eos with smt's....?
It might be that we look back and see the Steemit blogging platform as a proof of concept that is long dead and we have thriving platform of dapps that include new (improved) blogging sites in its place as @taskmaster4450 alludes to.
At the end of the day I think it is whether you place your bets on the future of STEEM or steemit...?
But for both futures, which ever it will become, it is smart to build some steem at the moment. We never know what heights Steem will reach!
So in the mean time, I will give my blog here enough focus and I will stay interactive. Trying to build a network and work from there!
We have to be honest and admit that the blogging platform isn't anymore what it was in the beginning of the year. More and more people dropping out, people writing dummy posts to collect the automatic upvotes and so on.
Sometimes my feed is the same for a complete hour, which isn't good at all.
Cheers,
Peter
Completely agree, my feed is on the wane too! V short-sighted for those that have dropped off - especially if they're busy sharing their content on other platforms instead for nothing...
