RE: Our Plan for Onboarding the Masses

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

Steem is indubitably an abysmal social network, only rivaled by 8Chan. At least 8Chan is infamous for being the worst social network on the internet, no one even cares about Steem. There's absolutely nothing Steem offers that can even remotely compete with Reddit. Save for a few tinfoil looneys, scammers and hate speech abusers who'd be banned off any civilised social networks. And "people getting paid", but that has proven as thoroughly broken and unsustainable as the Papiermark.

I'll likely be accused of trolling, but I have the best interests of Steem in mind. This is an appeal to not be weighed down by your heavy bags in denial and delusion; instead, engage in some critical thinking. Steem needs a complete overhaul to even try and compete with the far superior social networks where "the masses" are.

Sort:  

What does your overhaul look like?

I'm not a social network developer, so I lack the skills to design an overhaul. Nevertheless, as a user of social media and a supporter of Steem, I have offered plenty of opinion on the matter over the last 3 years. You can check my blog and comments for some recent thoughts on the matter.

Sorry, bro. I can’t read your comment...

I think communities and SMTs might fix that.

Lol. That image speaks louder than any words I can conjure.

Ah yes; what does the post say above about owning your content? They literally took away one of the founding philosophies of the platform, and still claim that it is there.

This is what we call in the UK, piss on us and tell us it's raining.

CgCg

There's absolutely nothing Steem offers that can even remotely compete with Reddit.

this is so remotely false it hurts

Semantically, remotely false means almost true.

You're right lol, how about: I disagree with quoted statement above, and I'm sorry you feel that way

The masses are not coming? Why didn't somebody say so? There is no need for promoting Steem? The Steem blockchain is dead? ...What about the other platform projects?
