RE: Is There Any Room For Short Content On Steemit?
very good points, but I think the image of short content being spammed is a stigma I wish to change here
there are meaningless short posts and there are ones that take more effort than the average long post but potentially hold a lot more impact. The test is this, if the creator was anonymous, what is the post worth? As I've explained the rampant self voting is more or less barely breaking even from vote renting, which does not discriminate on the quality of the post being bought (for the post part). Any less and there's just zero economic incentive for me to post at all.
what do you think of that? But also can you comment on the quality of my short posts please
if i'm honest, in terms of the impact that a post would have, a top 3 post from @trafalgar would not compare to even the average post from @traf if we were to let them out on conventional social media
90%+ of people just won't read long posts, almost irrespective of the content unless it's in the niche they're interested. Whereas a meme or a joke is mostly welcomed by all.
I was just in the middle of reading that post actually, it's interesting.
This is definitely the case!
I am not saying that I can not understand why you do it. And of course it is your well earned tight to use your power however you like.
Difficult. I can understand your point of view and your motivation. But I also understand people who don't like the image of it. But, as stated above, I have even seen you upvote posts from unknown minnows which is great and kinda prooves you are not only holding the power for selfupvoting.
What do you think?
Not people for the most part - it's the bots that do this. People would look at the post and not upvote. The bot upvotes because it got paid.
