RE: Remain Optimistic About Steemit @senseicat
also, there doesn't seem to be a lot of collaboration/discussion, but rather, everyone just posting in their own self-interest i.e. trying to make $$$. I had to jump in when I saw a discussion a while back about Steem replacing Facebook etc...Facebook has/had serious engagement/interaction and it's hard to imagine anything close to that on here, thus far I just see self-promotion. I put up a post a couple months a ago that raised a very important and overlooked question relating to crypto coins and the companies behind them, and I didn't get a single comment on it, which is not a good sign. Meanwhile I see accounts here posting 20 times a days generating $1000++ a day while saying "this is not professional/financial advice" (while making more than 99% of financial advisors)...which is a joke. Also, it's clear that a single person cannot generate that many technical analysis posts in a day, day after day. Even if someone had that ability, are they magically unemployed and decide to use their great skill set to post on Steem as a full time job? no way.
I agree the TA´s are only trash and most often not even relevant and self voted / bot voted into trending & hot pages 10 times a day. I dont even look at those tabs any longer, such a travesty! There are some communities but they are forced to operate on discord I guess, but yeah Facebook, sadly, is superior for interacting with one and another :/
Peace
