We need to encourage people to leave Google+, Facebook, and other social media networks and join us here. That will easily achieve the goal! It is crazy how many people still do not know about Steemit.
Take all the people currently using just G+ and fb, and bring them here. What would that do to the price? ;-)
I can't beleive people are still using G+ 😂
I have 11K followers on there, but sometimes I wonder how many of them are dead and abandoned accounts. I cannot prove it either, but I'd swear Google+ filters my content. There are some friends of mine still there, but they are basically talking to themselves. The fight for liberty on G+ was lost long ago. My hope is that they will all join me here instead!
hah, that would be amazing! Although what those platforms already have going for them - besides the name brand and that everyone knows about them (which itself is extremely significant) is that they are a much more polished, intuitive, and easier to use platform..especially for those with less tech experience. Not saying you need to be a programmer to use Steemit, for from it, but to truly understand its intricacies is no easy feat. Although I suppose at the most basic level, it's still doable for beginners.
It's what they don't have going for them that will bring people here though. Both sites censor. Facebook has jail. People's accounts get locked, banned, etc. all the time. I absolutely hate centralized censorship. Steemit has none. That reason alone makes it so MILLIONS of people will switch. It won't just be liberty lovers either. People are fed up on those sites. We are the pioneers, but the settlers are right behind us!
Totally agree! 🙌🏼
Im proud to say I've never used G+.
If we integrated an image and video sharing platform into the core of the system we'd be unstoppable and $10 would just be a tiny bump on the way up.
I loved G+ and met many friends there. Google has come a long way though. "Do no evil" has become "Do hide evil." There were tons of STEM folks there, and lots of tech savvy people enjoyed great discussions.
It's mostly dead now though. Between idiotic platform changes that made it frustrating to use to the content filtering (I cannot prove it but suspect it), there's no good reason to stay there anymore.
I made this account back in September of 2016 because @Hilarski suggested it. We met on G+. I should have come over and started building here then, but I did not. My account went unused until last month. There's no going back for me now though!
They'll have to shut this place down to get rid of me. haha
I havnt checked my google + in years like MySpace 😂
