RE: A question of/for the community on advertising rival platforms
It's impossible to balance the wants and needs of everyone without pissing some people off. So for every "flaw" there is in the system there is a balancing good point.
You're right about that. That's why rather than jump ship to steemit's competitors, I'd rather just stay on here. After all, who's to say that the issues steemit has won't happen elsewhere. And that by the time the competition experiences these issues, who's to say steemit hasn't already come up with a solution to address them.
Well, it is not just the issues. These people aren't Madonna, thy can't reinvent themselves. It will be the same tired content on every platform.
You're right. I wouldn't be surprised if the posts they've written on "How to earn Steem on Steemit" will literally be repurposed to "How to earn [insert cryptocurrency here] on [insert new platform I just joined here]".
Yep. They will set up the same initiatives and use the same silly memes and gifs and whatever to do the same thing. Unfortunately, the audience will lap it up all over again. Same con, new town.
Exactly. Just because something is new doesn't mean it will be better. The issues maybe different or the same, but either way there will be issues on the new platform. It took time for steemit to get even this good and there plans to make it better. Really looking forward to where steemit can go long term.
And at this point, we have to consider the possibility that the new platform is still a "maybe" competitor. We're not even sure if it will be a direct competitor. And even if it was, we have no idea if it will be successful or if the people who jump ship will be successful there, at all.
