RE: Sprayers, Naysayers and Layers
I think I'm a bit of a 'naysayer', but really, other than your posts, and one or two others who seem to be real people, I don't see much going on here other than bots voting on posts which seem to be either by bots, or about steemit's place in the crypto world.
As you might remember, I'm trying to stay positive here (i.e. - I don't downvote, preferring to use what power I have for good). Having found myself not all that keen lately, I've reduced my posting.
To me, my resistance to, and disgust with automated stuff ('spam', I label it all) prevents me from participating in the crypto-party, so mine will likely never be significant here.
I guess I'm asking, what IS here? The only things I have to say about steemit anymore are pretty critical. It's no different than any other platform, except that it doesn't work as well as a blog space.
I'll likely just walk away from it, but am considering turning my account over to some automated service, because that DOES seem to be what is valued the highest here...
Any other ideas for using up nearly 50 steem?
Have you looked into @dlive, @dtube, @steemhunt? Perhaps a change in format might bring your interest up? It is interesting the different views here because where I spend my time, most comments or votes of substance aren't automated, they are by real people. There are also discord communities that are filled with real people and chats where people hang out and share a laugh. It is a growing system, not a blog space alone. The blog aspect could be something in the future or, it could just be killed off completely as most people tend not to write or read as much as they used to in this world.
