RE: Privacy Workshop #7 - Down the "Steemit Inc." Rabbithole
Thanks for the comment, are there any other platforms that use blockchain so writer's work can't be censored and give the chance for earnings?
I wonder what it would be like to write for a platform that wasn't outright ghost/gaslight censoring me?
Wow, how sweet that would be, to be judged by the quality of your work as opposed to whether or not you said what rich people wanted you to. Wow, to imagine....maybe on some other planet.
To me it's more about the anon donors now that I know the nature of the steem overlords. I hope they have to work hard to censor me and that it ruins their day.
Yeah there are many new projects and quite a few old ones which are realizing the need to look after the integrity of content for true decentralized and sustainability.
Minds is possibly the most well known. It is slowly evolving and making some excellent strides. It is worth getting yourself on there to connect with some excellent minds.
Medium is also making some great changes to their ecosystem to look after quality content.
The one which I believe in the most though and is realizing a new network which can essentially be a hub for quality output and also connect you with other industries and individuals that are about freedom of speech. Without the oversight of some backwards fools that think that sustainability can be achieved by selective 'quality'.
This network/platform is called embermyne.

It is oriented towards more Arty expression but really you are on that path even if you don't realize. Comedy IS an art form and you certainly gained my respect with this post. The funny thing is, embermyne is modeled similar to steemit... only... the steemit that steemit intended to be. Do check it out. It's got great potential. Some elements are already in motion but the whole thing will be realized some time in 2019. Not a negative. As, hey it takes time to get something right. You don't make a baby by coming home drunk one night and entering through the back door.
Which... is what steemit has become.... a select few in the back going ham on that "rewards pool hole" and the rest are all at the front like... "If i just keep buying her drinks... she will soon let me touch her hair".
Good to find your blog. I'll keep an eye on your posts.
I don't visit here often... as ... it's not a place where QUALITY is found at the ready.
I got lucky with your post because you posted it on that thread on reddit about "where does the money come from on steemit".
Anyway keep posting. Even if no blind fool takes notice here.
Your thoughts and revelations will be on the blockchain for as long as this ratchet chain is alive.
thanks for the kind words and the tips, I will def check them out.
Upvoted!
(why i think i've found another human on here...)
(fwiw for the amount of time it took to make this matrix meme scene i have not yet gotten quite enough credit lol. or privacy workshop....which should be required reading in high schools and for parents imo)
Dont be a stranger :)
LOL yeah I know that is what really sucks about steemit. It's NOT about quality content at all. The bots DO NOT know how to identify quality so it's absolutely laughable to think that this is a platform that will rightfully award those who deserve it.
The headline "Money Talks" is quite fitting. It at least prepares one for the truth.. well, those who are able to decipher it's true meaning. Which is It's ALL ABOUT the Money. So if you don't put in, you can expect to be GAGGED. Hence you find yourself undervalued.
Don't play the game though man. Your money is better spend elsewhere. Invest it elsewhere and simply utilize this space as a dump for your ideas. Then as the right platform develops.. Decide to go all in on the one you feel is just and sustainable. The ROI is not even anything special here. Specially when you are locked in for a set period. There are many more rewarding models from other blockchains simply by staking. An act which works both for you and the platform, which in return works back for you.
So then one must ask, why would anyone decide to choose steemit as an investment when the only way for that ROI to be achieved is to feed an element of the system that is actually working to destroy the system. A tumor which will eventually cripple the host. How anyone existing here feeding the voting BOTS thinks that this is a smart financial move simply proves how gullible most are.
The real truth is that the ones playing the system for that quick return have no interest in the longevity or even the state of the platform. They know they will be out once their gains are had anyway. Evident by the steady withdrawal of their gains. @haejin for example. So the ones who are receiving the reward at the top, are short term players. While the ones at the bottom, the ones all feeding the top are in effect getting robbed. Wrongfully believing that their long term commitment will be rewarded. It's a classic PONZI here. A well masked one, but a ponzi nonetheless.
Keep posting though. There are a few who do have noble ambitions and are interesting in saving this place so you will be recognized by the right people eventually. I will keep voting you, and though it won't be much you at least don't waste your own juice.
Even if no reward, it is definitely worth it for the truth.
They'll pay attention eventually.
Probably when it's too late, but the inevitable is the inevitable.
This is insightful, thanks.
Like I write in the morpheus meme, you have to test your limitations to know if they are actually real. I'll give the embermyne a look, but the truth is I have actually made 1k in coin here and that's' better than elsewhere. And until I see proof that it's not an actual blockchain, the idea that the stuff will be online here for a long long while is at least encouraging. I don't have to worry about the mucky muck workings of reddit going through and censoring things from years back they don't like.
I can't believe how much i posted at u/mindhawk on reddit lol. check my controversials, they are all israel related, everything I ever said about israel got downvoted to 0 without any discussion, it's pretty blatant.
Here, it seems that if I say anything that is not 'steemit is the best!' that no one upvotes or comments, which if that's the level of critical thinking here then it is probably a ponzi.
I don't think they would be building EOS if there wasn't a fundamental flaw to steemit, as in, I think that as time goes on there will be so few people like myself making real content and so many bots/agents/gangs that very little value will be there while a ton of currency is extracted and that simply has to be inflationary.
So yes, I am right now on bitshares actually having a lot of fun and doing what you're saying, investing in some tokens.
I think that as long as my work here is public and I post my anon coin address, that if I tell the truth the best bet for income is the anons who like that I'm doing actual work that is helpful.
At the moment I am having a hard time coming up with my next post because there is tooooo much to write about lol. Which is in a way a good sign, but also it's all bad news so there's that.
btw check out this user: https://steemit.com/@areaka/comments
She commented and upvoted to say 'touche' but does that really go with any of her other activity? Stands out a little bit doesn't it that someone would come to steemit, make 12 posts, 11 meaningless, and then come HERE to this thread and say touche? wtf is that lol?
