Hi David, per usual a nice selection. Depending on when you post again, please consider this addition. https://steemit.com/steemit/@whatsup/building-the-community-living-on-the-block-chain Thanks for highlighting interesting articles.
@whatsup Thank you for your encouraging comment and great post submission. I equally love your visuals as your written content. Very well balanced, positive and mature writing. I will add it to tomorrow's front page! (Calm seas make poor sailors ;) ) I am sure 'Steemit' will 'get there' soon and like you, I am here for the long haul.
Hey I really hope you're staying encouraged David! Both visually and content wise your work is one of the best things on Steemit, I'm really surprised that you're not cracking the big bucks with this. (Yet?) Just came through to upvote, and going to read a couple of your links now!
@ibringawareness Yes indeed, I am staying encouraged and still have high hopes for Steemit. I just hope some of the issues brought to my attention in the articles in today's edition can be resolved in a mature manner before the platform goes mainstream. I was most upset on behalf of @masteryoda whose tireless daily efforts have definitely added great value to the platform. That he should be discouraged from continuing is deeply regrettable. I believe the community in a free market economy like Steemit should be left to ultimately determine 'value' and compensate it accordingly itself without the intervention of whales or founders.
Likewise, that someone should feel "witch-hunted" into having to break their anonymity in order to confirm their identity at the behest of a few is definitely not the way forward imo. I made the editorial comment because I had presented the other side of the story in yesterday's edition, and wish no-one to get the idea that 'Steem Talk' will be one-sided in any way or tolerate any form of censorship.
I may have my personal opinions, but they will be kept out of the 'paper'. Thanks again for your comment! :)
Thanks for featuring a post of mine David! Noticed it while scrolling through my feed. :-) Will reSteem it!
