RE: The Heck is going on with Steem?

in #steem7 years ago

I agree with points above. I feel pressured to use bots not necessarily for the upvote but just to get seen! I’ll create an image and it gets 100+ likes on Instagram and maybe 15 VIEWS here on steemit and I have included behind the scenes or a written aspect. Once I shared the link of one of my steemit posts in a Facebook group, while the post didn’t have any spectacular upvotes, the views were WAY higher ( people coming from fb) and there was again 100+ likes on the fb post and a few comments on fb, meanwhile hardly any comments on the actual steemit post. My personal guess is that many people here are not looking for content. People on fb and instagram don’t get rewarded to be there, they are more motivated to engage because the content IS the reward.
