RE: Does Steem Suck? Let Me Tell You How I Really Feel...

in #steem6 years ago

I don't think we will be a good fit for everyone for quite some time. It is going to take people who have a crypto vision. When people mine crypto they don't mine for the price today, they mine for the price in the future.

It will never be an easier path. It will only get harder. Those same strong writers will likely not find a place easier to earn than here. Those who leave didn't want to put money in... They wanted to take money out. We are not ready for that yet.

Sort:  

I just wanted a place to write and have some scintillating conversations...

If Steemit is just about the money... I'm not sure I'm in the right place...

I write for the art of writing and for the feedback... with out feedback... well...

I've written almost two hundred articles online for free, and it fed my passion...

It's too bad there's a lot of potential here, but chasing money alone, won't make this place grow.

I enjoy some great conversations, and I built my account slowly over 2 years. I made 95 posts that didn't earn a thing. I absolutely enjoy engagement. In the early days I had to seek it out.

Now I get it, but I didn't get it over night.

If it doesn't work for you, I'm sorry to hear that, but as I said... Creating content and having visibility isn't easy anywhere. I created a twitter account and send out a bunch of messages, nobody engaged them at all. I started engaging with others on their accounts and guess what, my own account got some action. Building an audience is hard even where they don't hand out money.

Now, this makes a lot of sense
