RE: How to think about your upvotes after HF21 - a non-technical guide

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

Steem is starting to sound like a Ponzi Scheme where only the whales are rewarded. This is not what I signed up for. And if it continues like this, I don't know if I'll stay for much longer. One thing is certain, I won't be buying any more Steem. Not under these rules.

Sort:  

everyone says that we need new people and there will be growth / if steem will not grow without new people - it means there is no value - the whales get rich and are not going to share - and we, as spectators / insist on high-quality content and come up with a bunch of rules that a newbie will not follow and even if he decides to become an author, then he will find disappointment and flight - a bunch of rules - increased centralization @trincowski

Exactly. This Fork is the worst thing for new users. It's really hard convincing anyone to try Steem and then they arrive and earn almost nothing at all. So 95% of them leave.

With this change, instead of earning almost nothing, they will earn nothing at all.

I see user retention going from 5% to 1% or less.

Steem has just became a private club. As an investment opportunity, it's absolutely terrible. No one will be willing to invest in a place like this.

PS: Since now upvoting comments is useless, I've upvoted your last post instead.

Yeah time for the tipping token to rise!
or I'll make my own!
Comment upvotes are now worthless, or more accurately worth-less than on a post.
