RE: Steemit Will Never Be As Large As Facebook, But That Is A Good Thing

in #steemit7 years ago

People who said that were wrong. 100%. Lol, I said in 2005 Facebook was going to take over everything and I was pretty much right. Facebook is an ad platform that in invaluable and the masses care too much about stupid stuff to focus on the more sophisticated crowd of Steemit. I stand firm believing Steemit won't be as large as Facebook, but I still think that is good thing.

Sort:  

Naw, I totally agree. This is far more niche. That said, it's all driven by who shows up. If it's taken over by normies, more normies will come flooding in.

YouTube's a good example though. Though everyone watches, there's limited creators, and this platform is really for the creators it feels.

I agree we are what we make it. I feel a lot of the normies won't be active because of how hard it is to gain traction to make money. If they come here to make money, most will leave shortly after first payouts. The ones that like good content will find a great home. It depends what they are looking for I guess. We'll see. We have a long way to go. Thanks for the discussion. You got a new follower.
