Steemit is highly censored and centralized (sorry but somebody has to say the truth)
Apologizing for telling the truth? Or apologizing because there is hardly any truth in that bullshit?
Steemit provides an example of the failings of an oligarchy.
Steemit is not a government, oligarchy doesn't apply because nobody is divinely entrusted to rule over anyone, that premise does not exist, and as it will be evident such allegory or metaphor or simile has no connection to the reality of Steemit or Steem.
When you give power to a limited few it is exceedingly rare that any equal distribution of power and wealth is to exist.
That's the communist manifesto, rich people were GIVEN power and there should be equal distribution of power and wealth, which is exceedingly rare that it will happen WHEN YOU GIVE rich people power, because rich people were GIVEN power by you.
When you give power to a limited few
First off, the narrative of "Rich People" relies on the false premise that sometime ago, somewhere close or far from here, someone who had the power, gave it to rich people. Limited few is a great euphemism for the truths or facts that follow the premise of a primordial second person pronoun that hands out power to rich people.
Democracy tries to solve this, however whilst it is not direct (also known as true) we still have an oligarchy, just an elected one. It shares all flaws with an oligarchy except how permanent those in power stay as usually a new election is held every 4 or 5 years within a representitive (or false) Democracy.
Democracy is a form of government, we are still discussing social media, but I'm sure that government and social media are creatures of the same feather.
You post content, people decide if they like it or not and depending on how ‘popular’ it is, you get paid. Being able to monetize your content is great and it’s about time that we have a way to do it. However, when it comes to Steemit, appearance is deceiving.
Glad to be back to reality, but not so much for the claim that appearance is deceiving, or people don't decide if they like the content you can post and people don't get paid for posting content.
At launch there were no compiled wallets and an error in the setup instructions which allowed only the developer to initially mine any STEEM. When users asked for assistance, none was given.
None was offered, it's a moot point then that none was given.
Were there promises made or guarantees? Nope, so it's a moot point that wallets didn't exist, or errors were present.
Later on, user ‘Eclipse Crypto’ discovered that the instructions given by the developer were incorrect, accounting for the errors everyone else was experiencing that was preventing them from being able to mine.
Cool story, what's the point again? We were discussing how steemit is like an oligarchy, HIGHLY censored AND centralized and the Appearance of Creating Content and getting Paid for it is deceiving, not how this dude figured out some error.
Once other users were able to join in on mining, the developer was confronted with another problem. Overnight, an error on the developer’s end resulted in all his miners crashing (for the second time). Other users continued mining STEEM during this time.
This story is getting to a point soon, right?
The developer, upon realizing that he had lost some control of the supply, decided to re-launch STEEM to ensure that he alone had majority of supply (at least 75%+ of supply).
Yeah, I'm sure that's what was happening, and that is not another false narrative devoid of facts. (big eye roll) You have yet to demonstrate Highly censored and centralized, the narrative that it promised fairness and equal distribution of power and that appearances are deceiving and now you have to demonstrate that the Developer realized he had lost some control and decided to re-launch STEEM to ensure that he alone had majority of supply. Does that include a whole other accidental launch with bad instructions and errors? which he built in on purpose of course? even though it was open source? and then he re-launches to gain control he had lost? the control which he gained because of bugs and bad instructions? that control was re-set because people found the flaws and he needed to take control by launching it again? Exactly how was there going to be any guaranteed control by launching it again?
As you can see the developer did everything possible to ensure almost complete centralization.
Yeah, as you can see, centralization in this context doesn't mean much of anything.
What you posted in that screenshot of a nameless comment amounts to the same quality unfounded and otherwise bullshit claims, and I understand why you kept the name out winks.
Here is the same baseless claims which your screenshot of baseless bullshit comes to
