Facebook and Instagram will go out of business~ Love Steemit

Media Dinosaurs are falling down!

"With the recent attacks against the free media, its reason to think these old media companies will likely parish"

WE are the most important part of social media. Without us, they are worthless. The only reason they have a value is because they can sell advertisements that you have to watch. Just so we an use their platform. This is unacceptable. I have noticed this so often lately. The only value a lot of these companies have, is us. So it begged me to think, why are we not being rewarded for our content, our followers ect. Why am I not getting paid for having to watch these friggen' advertisements on Facebook or Instagram? Youtube has now started demonetizing users for their personal beliefs, literally stomping on the ground youtube was built on!

This is fantastic, we see that a lot of these large profiles have been losing large percentages of their user base only the monthly average. People are leaving, the drab sponsored pages, political garbage, religious crap and everyone looking for a little bit of sympathy for their life to do better. It was sickening, I deleted Facebook for almost a year before I found Steemit! Calling me to turn back on all of my social media and start sharing Steemit with people. I have gotten around 20 new people this lat month to sign up and join Steemit.com WE will keep going. The large media companies will die unless they realize, like we are realizing.

WE ARE THE VALUE IN ALL OF SOCIAL MEDIA, NOT THE COMPANIES THAT HOST US

If we all leave, they will have nothing. This exodus is happening, now. Its easy to see why. Steemit is a very engaging platform, where the users are incentivized to create good content, content that will do well. its genius

WE just wanted to give a quick shout out to the #steem community. Thank you!

Amen brother.

Unless they catch up with the times, they will fail to move forward!

My mama told me: "Fools names and fools faces, are always seen in foolish places."

Never liked "Fakebook" esp. now with their totalitarian censorship antilogarithms. Steemit is entirely different for reasons you said. Faces and names on Steemit are NOT foolish at all!

(Put THAT in yer pipe an' smoke it Mama!)

Nice one, so excited for the new business models comin out into the world

I agree....going to be a slow process converting FB users. The mentality I see is 'hit and run' sharing or posting. I think a lot of people would have a deer-in-the-headlights expression if they realized they had to put some thoughtfulness into posting. Newbie here and following. Thank you.

Yeah of course, I spent years writing blogs and doing advertising, this place is fucking amazing!

Here, Here!

Well said!

This is the most important message we need to get to the masses;

We are the power that runs everything!!!!!

Lets run the whole world on steem power!!

Put everything on the blockchain!!

Open source everything!!

Come on people, the time is now, nothing can stop us!

Lets light this steem powered rocket ship and shoot for the moon!!

We now have all the tools we need, lets do this thing!

Since you convinved me to join Steemit @the arcanebear Facebook has become completely boring. Thank you!

haha awesome, only using facebook to get others to check out steemit!

100% agree with you, i liked this post a lot, will resteemit asap

Thank you for the support!

Power to the people!

For sure!

People are the power!

Fuck Facebook!

WE use it just to show more people about Steemit!

Only thing it's good for! 😉

The funny thing is, you can not convince anybody to leave and join steemit :)
Maybe 1 from 500!

Thats not true, i have had great success, you just have to show people the value, right in their faces. They eventually get it. I get about 1 out of every two people I show. But i have also had 15 years of experience ind advertising marketing and sales! each for me to rebuttle them to buying in

Ok, than you have a different approach, and that is fine.

Yeah, selling isnt easy! Gotta show each person the value to them and everyone usues social media for different reasons. The money part jsut sounds like a scam to most people because they dont fundamentally undertand what block chain itself iss!

I still do not know :)
I am just posting my stuff and hope to make better posts every day.

You are doing great!

You got me on it bud! - JamiSun☀️

Well said @thearcanebear! This place and places like it are the future of social, of media, and of social media!

I thought I was already following, but just followed you now. Steem on dude!

am sure Facebook and Instagram will go out of business :D am first who will stay here not there :D

Yeah, we only use the other to promote steemit often!

hahahhaah :D i start to use other for same reasons :D

Amen to that. I hate Facebook with all my heart, it's a very dangerous platform and has billions of people hypnotized by it. Sheep who don't appreciate the value of privacy.
