RE: Baffled by mewe but laughing at Ugly Medieval Cats of Classical Painting

in #blog7 years ago

First, ok, I think it really was meant to be a cat, but in medieval painters just didn't master the art depicting cats. :-) Second, I'm still at Facebook, and I'm not deleting my account. Too much stuff to move. Also, I've tried MeWe, and it's not user-friendly, for a tech-tard like me, anyway, and while I like being able to post stuff without the constraints at Steemit, I just don't have time to learn yet another social media platform. I lost my Reddit password and never did find my way back, and didn't miss Reddit. I know an author who lost his Steemit password and never tried to come back. There is no way that Steemit can do what Facebook does, connecting us with high school classmates and childhood friends and far-flung cousins. It's up to us to set limits on what we share. People who spouted politics on Facebook and complain now about their privacy being violated - how did they imagine they had any privacy there to begin with? (Off to find you on FB if I can!) {laugh emoji}

My thoughts exactly on the Facebook...I have come across people there that I haven't seen in years and some of them distant cousins. I know there is no way to do that here. I can't figure how they think Steemit is just like FB...I need to find some strategy here because there are people making $1000s for posting and then there are people like me making .55...but I will find out what it's all about eventually ...Why would we be able to see what's in people's wallets..hahaha...Is it so we can figure out their secret? Is that part of the steemit game? Is the game to see who is going to run out of "steam"<~~"steem"?...This place baffles me but I am addicted to something about it..I'm not sure what yet. You have been here a while...what am I missing?

"This place baffles me but I am addicted to something about it..I'm not sure what yet."
The people! Meeting people like you is what keeps me here.
It isn't the upvotes, that's for sure. Other get curied half a dozen times -- are they that much better than those who've never been curied? Nope. It's all Who You Know. And here we are, hoping, and having fun, and hoping for whale slaps, curies and upvotes, and having fun....
