RE: Hey Steemit Whales, How'd You Like To Fix All Of Steemit's Problems And Make Bank By Doing Absolutely Nothing?
Good points made, but it goes deeper then what’s presented.
I no longer get upset with anyone taking advantage of the systems put in place. I get upset with devs not listening to the users of their platform.
On my post I happily upvote anyone who leave solid comments and further conversations, but I’m not either.
The solution I provided above does not depend on the devs to be implemented. That is the problem with this place, that everyone expects "the devs" to do something. Who are these devs anyway? I've never seen any of them post anything. I've never seen anyone say, "Hi guys, I'm a Steemit dev and I just wanted to give you a quick update on what we're working on."
Where is Ned? I checked his profile and the guy hasn't made a post or a comment in months. The CEO of this company is nowhere to be found? I get it, maybe the guy is busy. But who cares? The point is that you should not depend on Ned, Fred, Jed or whoever the fuck to fix your platform when it's built on a blockchain.
You can create a solution from your own creativity, like I am trying to do with my idea. Stop looking for other people to solve your problems and try to do something on your own.
Lmfao, you do realize that you are one in a mass pool of users. I’m not begging for anyone to fix anything, but it is clear that a community effort ain’t fixing shit.
Leave it as it is for all I care, just realize your whining will go nowhere with out an official implementation.
"ain't fixing shit" until some day it does fix it. Look at Condenser which got basically overtaken by the busy.org interface. As far as I know the busy.org app is built "decentralized" from Steemit Inc. and Ned
I tend to be optimistic and keep faith that the system can gather enough forces to "fix itself" in a decentralized way
Until now, the “community effort” has been lead by people like @berniesanders and @grumpycat who only look to punish people. There is very little construction going on there. They make a post talking shit and then drop the hammer. People get riled up and their energy is not taken advantage of. Because they have no SP, not much you can do with them anyway.
My solution was clear and concise. Not whining at all. It is a plan that will work if executed and does not depend on anyone other than me, a single high SP account and participating writers to get it going. We don’t need Ned or deva to do complicated math and have team meetings to make it work.
Read the comments. People “get” the idea. I think I just need to try and reach out to some accounts individually.
I'm with you. Maybe even @ngc / @nextgencrypto / @thecyclist / @berniesanders could be interested in trying a more constructive approach ? Who knows ?
Am with you all the way bro. Your solutions are realistic and indeed the vaccine to Steemits disease. @crypto2crypto you haven't proffered any solution(s) yet. So it will be better if your criticism is a little suggestive or constructive. @yallapapi its a privilege to have you as a High Sp account who is concerned about creating a lasting solution to Steemits' Problem.
I mean thanks but I am definitely not a high SP account. I’m talking 100k+ when I use that term.
Your post are too good so therefor i am going to following you right now.
If anyone joins steemit GitHub and provide decent pull-request, they will accept it.
I hope you are right
^^^^^THIS.^^^^^
THIS @yallapapi COMMENT, RIGHT UP HERE.
A BAZILLION TIMES -THIS-
WE NEED A SOLUTION THAT DOES -NOT- DEPEND ON THE DEVS TO "FIX" THIS PLATFORM. FOR THEM TO "MAKE IT WORK" FOR US.
WE NEED A SOLUTION THAT -WE- CAN IMPLEMENT AND -WE- CAN MAKE IT WORK.
I scratched my head to make an intelligent comment here and all I could come up with was "I fully agree". What else can I add to make it sound more intelligent ? :-)
good advertising
hey ,great JOB
I read quickly but would you say that you propose is a kind of "internal magazine" inside the Steemit eco-system ? The whale would be like to owner of the magazine and he would pay (by voting) the "journalists" (minnows) that work for the "magazine". And there you add some kind of "magazine - like" structure with an editor that selects what articles make it into a given issue and takes care of the overall level of quality and style and alignement with the prefessed "mission" of the "magazine".
Am I even close ?
How do I as little guy with no experience in creating something like this make a change to the platform??
@yallapapi, i get your point here. The steemit system has been built to sustain itself. I also understand that Creativity and originality is what is meant to be the DNA of the system. But the issue here is, with the growing increase in the influx of new users, the web gets bigger and it becomes very difficult to get noticed. Though:
"Success is a never-giver-up journey" for me.
this is awesome.
People who are constantly “upset” with the system aren’t trying hard enough and spend their time whining about others. They need to work on themselves IMO...there are ways.
Are you referring to me with this statement? I am doing plenty.
Definitely not referring to you, talking about those that are minnows and just whine whine whine, steem is 2 years old, people like you and those up top that care are going to make it evolve, the ones at the bottom just have to stay on the grind...it will come together IMO
Yes... isn't this the point... you start at the bottom and you work your way up? If you want to increase your profits you have to increase your efforts? I'm a newbie and I still struggle with understanding how it all works exactly. I still don't understand everything in my wallet. It isn't a new user friendly system... however I have persevered and I am slowing getting there. As you said, as things evolve so will we...
exactly this. I was already thinking as a minnow that what this platform needs are people to come together as a group and get involved in stuff like this.
Can I borrow some SBD so I can spend it on BOTS so I can get my post trending like these guys do? Thanks the only reason they got the followers they have & the upvotes they are getting.
I know it’s an uphill battle. But it’s just like real life. Get over it and find a way to succeed.
Look at my wallet. I ain’t got shit right now but for a few weeks and putting in effort i think it’s getting somewhere.
Look at my wallet. I started after you. I cashed out $200 bitcoin took probably a $100 loss on it at the time. I put that into Steemit. Have withdrawn some steem & opened a Bitshares account.
It's now worth $275. So I think I know what I'm doing....
most of what they do wrong in not cashinig in on baits based on current fads
Agreed
I bet you are stupid in rl
Mmmhmm
And the one who talks about not putting effort in only has $30.00 in their Steemit account & has been here since October 2017. I made $30 my first month here.
Steemit is an investment, yes one has to be creative in writing, but there is more to that.
In the gaming world people would use the term "Pay to Win" which i think also applies here on Steemit. The people with the most money invested in bots and votes, will win over other people that don't have such funds. You can see a really bad post with 1 picture and 3 lines of text make $100 just because bots were used and a amazing 1500 word post complete with video's and pictures making only $1 without bots because of this.
I am also trying to use some bots just so my posts get seen by people and not get buried right after i posted it. Because i don't have such funds to spend $50 for upvotes or more for a single post, so its harder for people like me. Thats why i think you could consider Steemit Pay to Win ;)
To show you a post i made as a example: https://steemit.com/gaming/@baloothebear/the-best-upcoming-mmorpg-of-2018-is-bless-online
Which is in my personal opinion a decent post, and used about 3 SBD to give it some more attention, and the result is pretty darn bad... I am not saying i deserve $100 for that post, but i do think that it is better then some posts that make way to much for just a picture and 3 lines of text.
Don't get me wrong though, i do like this platform and i will keep trying to add decent quality content to my channel and i think it still great if i get a few SBD out of some of my posts. So iam happy either way, but i do see some sort of problem with the whole upvote system.
this is awesome.
This is an anticipating post. I request make post like this soon.
This is a prime example😂🤣🤣
hello
What you say is absolutely true, the profit of the writers who contribute quality is not equal to the content that is currently being published, there is undoubtedly an imbalance in Steemit that we have to solve, you have some good ideas but how to ensure that all this is applied, how would you make the whales access the solutions you are giving?
It is absolutely true that the financial incentive in most cases raises the quality of the work.
The truth is very interesting and sustainable what you say, and don't forget the Hispanic community there is a lot of quality there, even many communities are fighting the battle against this problem that you have clearly raised in this article.
Hopefully you can implement what you propose, that would improve Steemit a lot, because when you see the cracks in a site you have to repair or rebuild and this platform has a lot of potential just need to correct.
@crypto2crypto, Your stance here is great:
But how many users with an advantaged vote value and reputation would do what you are doing in a way to have a significant effect on the ever-increasing population of this platform?
The system here has given power to the people. Its left for the "advantaged" users to have a heart of gold as you do.
