RE: If I Ran Steemit: An Open Letter To The Steemit Community

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

quoting CoinTelegraph....:)
But sure, decentralization is a good idea. It's nothing new. The decentralization would solve most of our problems and sure, it might as well come anyway as the price of Steem goes down.
Also, do you see the irony of your title in a decentralization-heavy post? :))
If you ran Steemit, I'm afraid you'd sell it to Synereo [ just kidding ]

On a more serious note, I strongly agree with the fact that Steemit HQ should keep their eyes and ears open to the input of this community. I've met and know so many smart and knowledgeable people around here and our input has been generous, free and abundant...ignoring it like that, even going against everything most people want, is really a bizarre way to treat your loyal base.

All the rest is details...

Sort:  

inspiration is Tesla who ripped up his contract with Westinghouse to save his AC current idea from dying. The best inventions need to be given to those who can best use it. Holding onto purses is something not worth emulating.

Actually, I would run it until it could run itself, and I would redistribute more than 10% to be honest. The best thing to do is to remove oneself entirely out of a decentralized platform, get it running on its own and then vanish. I'd be quick to identify those who are naturally good at curation. That would be where my energy would lie since bad curation is one of the fundamental problems.

very nice. but you know that people would do a lot of wonderful things in their imagination.
it should run itself though....but the problem does not lie in bad curation imho, it lies in bad curation from super powerful users. and why do you think you'd be "naturally good at curation" anyway? don't you see that this thinking is so centralized that it will only lead to strifes...jsut instead of your friends, it will be someone else's friends not being happy with the current curation :)
Also, you did not seem to mind curation when you were trending all the time.
SOOO.
