RE: I won´t tell you how to get followers, I will Show You
I can understand it's hard to see past the monetary rewards when using Steemit, it is human nature after all to always want more.
But I do agree, engagement is key in a place like this, and it is one of the things I love most in my short time here on Steemit. I have young kids, so going out, meeting new people and exploring the world isn't something I can do as easily now on my own, as when I was single. So a place like Steemit has given me the chance to engage, connect with and learn from other people on passions we share, and I love that they could be anywhere in the world. Just like you're currently in Nicaragua, and I'm currently in the UK :D
Yes! I mean, we are all here for the money in some extent, some more than others but that is not the point, it is very delicate to judge monetary reasons.
But engagemente, that is something we are entitled to judge as this is a social media platform! You know?
It is amazing, I have found people from all over the world and actually going through your feed is so much more fulfilling that doing the same on FB. The difference is that people here actually make an effort to share good and quality content whereas on facebook you just click "share meme" and that´s it.
If it wasn´t for all the people I want to keep in touch, I would close facebook tomorrow.
Which part of the UK are you from? I am from Mexico but been traveling central America for a few months now.
Yes I agree, everyone is on Steemit for their own different reasons. Some may be more misguided than others, but I guess everyone is just doing what they think they should be doing.
Nevertheless, what a great platform Steemit is for providing these possibilities. It is amazing that some people are able to use Steemit as their main source of income. I'd be thrilled if that happened to me :)
I relate to how you feel about Facebook. I also need Fb to help stay connected to friends and family across the world. If only they all moved with us to Steemit, eh? :D
I'm currently living in Surrey, just outside of London. I'm originally from Hong Kong though :) Are you backpacking in Central America? How much longer are you travelling for before you head home?
And BAM! Followed! :D
Yes yes! If they all came to facebook that would be nice, but then we would have memes everywhere :( Dont know how comfortable I feel with that jajajaja
I am in Central America, going back to México and then to europe for steemfest in november, then a bit of europe and after my mandatory 3 months insider schengen i will leave to south east asia! What about you!? How much longer in UK?
