RE: Should you become a full time steemian? - A critical take on the steem dream
You make some good points. I disagree with usability. It's not awful hehe.
What I will say is that unless someone with power (decentralized my *ss) starts to sort the upvote trading issue this platform will drive the value of STEEM into the ground. Not only ending Steemit but Dtube.
Right now, you can make a living on Steem not via content, but by spending Steem Dollars for upvotes. With enough Steem Dollars you can beat the cost and ultimately make a return on investment.
It's pretty sad for a content driven platform.
I agree. It is sad to see that nothing is done to limit the amount of paid votes on the platform, which cause spam to be profitable. I'm hoping this is accepted until we can build up the user base, but a solution will be created before everyone worthwhile leaves to make way for the spam.
