RE: Facebook is Tightening its Censorship Policies and it's an Opportunity for Steemit - if People Even Give a Fuck Anymore

in #facebook7 years ago (edited)

Interesting post. I came across a number of posts here that talked about Steemit marketing with printed flyers and all in some parts of the world. Maybe they should add something about this to the flyers. 'Your voice cannot be suppressed. True and total freedom of expression found only on Steemit!' It's a thought! Upvoted. Cheers! - @sandzat

Honestly, in the long run, that would be a lot better than "You can make money!" Most people don't believe that, and those who do are usually scammy in one way or another. The money should be a bonus. That's how you create a good community and platform, and then the money comes.

Very true. One of the phrases right now is "Come for the money! Stay for the community!" which is actually a nice invitation. However, once people do come join, most will figure out that it is difficult to make money unless they really add value and make friends. That is going to take time and commitment. The disillusioned ones will soon fall out, while the ones with substance will stay hooked once they discover their voice matters. If they've already been active on Facebook, they'd have all faced the banning bots one time or the other. On Steemit however, I believe the NSFW tag works nicely. So people can still have their say, be themselves, make like minded friendships.
Thanks for the interesting info on Juhannus. And I know a Finnish word now! :)

You speak pretty deep on the subjects that catch your attention. Definitely awesome,we need more people like you so involved, instead of those who say "Hello good job" I'm interested in seeing what kind of content you have posted about.
