RE: SteemSTEM Distilled #58
The question now is, how to move that blue line back in the upward direction? Doing so in a bearish crypto market would be a very strong sign.

Even the stability we've seen is a good sign I think since SBD has steadily decreased in value over the past several months.
SBD is still worth too much
The next weeks may be crucial. And also the indicators we use. I can show other indicators that are not so positive :D
The bull tends to motivate some to write more. But it'd be awesome to see that ATH on this bearish market.
Just an idea:
Create a steemSTEM for discouraged people in which shorter and less scientific people could post and get smaller rewards. Small reward being 3% VP, medium being 5% and large being 10%. This would mean more voting which means more reading :(
Hence it's not a solution given the specifications at the time of the steemSTEM hiatus, but a thing to pay attention to in the future. I have talked about steemSTEM to everyone in my community, they all say they will try to write but nobody actually does. And when they see my blog (the usual "look what i am writing about", they are all saying the same thing "i could never write something like this". But they are just discouraged and in the economy for attention, the contests and challenges always win.
We need to have a broader talk about goals and organic growth, this time with some psychology insight. We are on a good track but we should be able to do more. I am still digesting solutions, I will try to come with a better idea.
So... you want us to work more? I am sorry but... not a good idea. I am only OK to work more for extremely good posts. For the passable ones, we have the small votes. Just tell your friends to target something smaller. This is a start. After some time, they may move to the larger votes :)
I already said it's not a solution. I am just giving you feedback from ~100 people :D
Don't shoot the messenger!I will come with better ideas, so far nothing else has hit me.
I don't shoot, I barely nicely react. The 100 people should learn to reach the 5% upvote as a started (pelase send them this :p). The gap is small.
If you have an answer, please share it :D
Some recent comment based initiatives may help, but those users wouldn't be included in these statistics. This is for author retention not necessarily user retention. ...
I would start with author retention, personally. This is where we can probably do something.
woosh
I am sure I said something you didn't know :D
