Lastly, just leave. This is not Facebook. We don't need a long drawn out explanation that says absolutely nothing about the situation. Just leave.
I don't want to encourage anyone to leave, but I too am tired of the leaving posts, mainly because the reasons for leaving get basic things wrong about the platform. It saddens me because people are obviously pretty confused about it.
To climb off my high horse here, I don't mean to say that leavers or anyone else are dumb, I just think that there is a huge lack of good information about things and it causes confusion. The blame for this lies squarely on Steemit Inc. AKA @steemitblog , and the onus on fixing the situation also.
For the rest of us, we are going to be here producing new, original, content and making Steemit a better place for those that wish to stick around and work towards that goal too.
I share your attitude and while I haven't produced anything original in a while, this is what I like about here and what I intend to get back into too. Thanks for this. 😎
I am not wanting people to leave either. It is just a sad attempt at getting pity out of others, and a bit of cash in the process, that they are after. The ones that truly intend to leave do so and don't say anything. They cash their accounts out, power down and leave without saying much.
It seemed like for a day or two that the "new" page was nothing but "I am leaving" articles. Boo hoo. Take care, the rest of us will continue pushing forward.
If people decide to leave, isn't it a good to hear why? You don't have to read them if it hurts your feelings that much. Consider it as a user feedback and chill.
No hurt feelings. Just pointing out the futility in clogging the various categories with one sentence, or less, articles about hating Steemit now and they are leaving.
Thanks for, according to your comment, just reading the headline. In the article I actually ask those leaving to leave a little more feedback about why they are leaving so the rest of have a better understanding of the overall situation.
Exactly...
I agree.
