Honestly I don't think i could leave the platform quick enough. I invested a small chunk of cash to see what would happen with this platform but I gotta say after investing a considerable amount of time understanding how the community functioned I didn't like what I saw. It favors whales and bots too much and it isn't a good place for any content other than cryptocurrency news. Even at that the content is usually thats taken from another source like twitter or youtube. Any content provided is usually I'll lay around in the background here, but I'm out.
The people with a lot of money are really not supportive. Normal would be that if you have a group of people and you see someone with a problem that you walk up to him and try to help him. At least that is what I understand about being kind and.. supportive. When I stopped a while ago because Inhated the coldness of the people in power I felt so good. After a few months I returned. I don't know what to do.
im waiting for my powerdown to finish and then im out.
What are your reasons? What is the problem of steem?
Edit: You said it already sorry. Too much bots and whales.
to go further it's useless, i can't get any info on here of any value that i could get elsewhere, i get that it's early, i get the idea i get the fact that people do use this, but even if it were to pop that would be under the assumption that regular people outside of crypto would use it for stuff much like reddit or youtube, I don't see that happening. Maybe if you buy out steemit sure, but i thought this was decentralized so that's not happening either. steemit is dead and that's that
It's not for everyone. Best of luck!
... says the guy who posts almost exclusively crypto news... and dj tips?
Aka: Over saturated niche, and a completely empty niche.
Remember, just because something didn't work out for you doesn't mean its dead lol.
Have fun with your future endeavors.
ok mister steemit. Take a look at Rule #14 on the complete steemit Etiquette Guide. So this is what I'm talking about, one with money make the rules and don't follow their own. Bots and whales run the show, and the only reason i post crypto notes and what I'm watching is because that's the only thing people follow and upvote. You are the reason #steemitisdead

Check out the actual rules regarding flagging.
I am neither a whale nor a bot, and you must not be looking anywhere but the trending page. Sorry you are a fool. I won't be flagging anymore. However steemcleaners knows of your comments spam now as well.
speak negatively on the state of the platform, not disagreement on rewards i dont care what these posts generate, the idea that i have to kiss up to whales or invest enough to protect or promote my posts through selfvoting bots just doesnt promote good content. Stop the bots produce better original content. steemcleaners are great too, they flag stuff plenty of original content by other people and skip over things clearly poached from the internet, they don't make right anytime they mess up and profit regardless. I strongly disagree with your actions. and again #steemitisdead
Also, only reason I flagged was for disagreement with the rewards. If you are so unhappy with the system, and leaving no need to make money from it.
here's another point too mr dont you dare speak against the platform, look at your views on OCD, people upvote you sure, but people aren't actually viewing your content, this is rampent across steemit. You arent doing anything productive or of any value. steemit is dead.
You're a fool who knows nothing of what they are talking about. We have 800+ individual authors who were rewarded extra for being featured who think otherwise. Take your 70 dollar investment elsewhere.
it wasn't 70 when i started i can promise you that. and yeah wow 800+ authors and 50 readers, that sure seems sustainable in the long run doesnt it
