RE: Facebook is Tightening its Censorship Policies and it's an Opportunity for Steemit - if People Even Give a Fuck Anymore
Facebook is a social media platform giant. Steemit, for now, is no competition for it. People are joining steemit only because of rewards. Take that out and people will rush towards the facebook again. It's not a question of why, rather it's a question of when. I am a social media junkie and I have made numerous accounts on many platform. There were other platforms like Steemit which offered money for posting. But steemit is unique because it hass been setup on block chain technology. I know people rushing towards steemit but they also should bring themselves the content, not just some random clicks and copy paste articles.
If people keep doing stuff like this, steemit will be closed one day or it's reward pool will become tiny with time. I am working hard on steemit and my ass off to gain some exposure. I just fear that after working so hard if steemit gets down, then my all hard will be lost. I am just hoping for the best. let's see what happens next.

Thanks for the article though @schattenjaeger
Oh, I totally agree. Right now the rewards are the gimmick. The sole gimmick. So, the end result is just a product of that fact.
What I'm saying that Steemit should have an entirely different gimmick altogether.
Becase the "Come here to make free money" thing is not sustainable, and I doubt it attracts quality users.
Yeah i agree with that. But let's just think that. If we take this rewards factor from steemit, who would spend his time here working hard to provide content and earn money. Everyone would leave in a flash and even you would do the same.
The point is Steemit is good but in order to survive they should diversify their reach and for sometime increase their reward pool. After Hardfork19 it got really affected.
I know. What I mean is that Steemt should be designed to be fun without the rewards. And then when you add the rewards on top of on otherwise fun platform, you have a winner.
