RE: If Facebook Closed Tomorrow, Would Steemit Be Ready to Take Over?

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Omg Ive never read that quote from him before, if thats true, thats awful! I know that ive mentioned this a million times before but I really do believe that the implementation of "communities" on Steemit could be the thing to make it on par with Reddit or even Facebook. Facebook has turned very "group-centric"over the last couple years with many people not spending their time on their news feed but in groups dedicated to whatever they enjoy. I admin a group on Facebook of almost 14,000 women.
It would also take care of the Trending and new tabs, and it would render most of the bidbots useless since the tags are so general and people would never spend that much to promote a post inside a group (or at least I think no one would)
The other thing is yes, there needs to be more manual curation of good content, which is what Ned should be delegating instead of giving so much SP to dmania, which is 99% stolen memes. There should be at least 1 or 2 huge curators for each tag, looking through everything coming through the new and hot sections. But what do I know...I am a plankton lol

Sort:  

I would love to see groups, would make it alot easier to connect with likeminded people and alot easier to find the type of content we each like to consume. Plus communities foster further growth as well.

True, some of the Facebook groups I'm a bit reluctant to leave, but I dont post on them anymore because I'm here, chatting to you lot :)
