RE: Placeholder #191294
Sorry to hear, @trafalgar, that you think Steemit will fail as a content discovery platform. Having migrated from Facebook around a year ago, I have been blogging here, daily, on literature, philosophy, spirituality and cultural issues and it has meant a kind of rebirth for me as a writer. I hope you might visit my blog and tell me if you think I'm wasting my time.
Respectfully, Yahia

it has nothing to do with you @yahialababidi, the problem is with the economic incentive that's undermining the platform, as stated.
Sigh I know, Kevin... But, egomaniac that I am (aka artist) I always want to make sure that my work will be seen and valued. Good thing that I’m an incorrigible optimist, too, as well as a compulsive sharer 🤪
Hope you’re enjoying your weekend, and that bellydancing piece I posted might tickle ya :D
@kevinwong

The entire point that kevin and i are trying to make here is that even if everyone on the platform thinks you're one of the greatest writers/artists ever, there's too big an economic deterrent to reward you with money and exposure through votes.
It's a little complicated if you're relatively new, but it wasn't like this before (though n^2 was far too steep) and doesn't have to be like this.
Thank you, for taking the time to explain this to me. For all our sake, I do hope that things change for the better, over time. Meantime, my passion to share my work (even with a few loyal readers) keeps me going until then.
Sweet dreams 🙏🏼
