It is rather funny that most of the people pointing out the positive people are the negative people, I try to stay positive, I also believe that steem may rebound price wise, but I also believe that it is not a real necessity for steem block chain to be successful. I see the block chain as already successful. Even at these depressed prices, people are still posting commenting voting, and interacting with each other.
With it being a new year and that year being 2020, I actually un-muted all the people I had muted over the life of my account. (I think just shy of 90 muted). It took a bit to do, but the majority of them had stopped posting/commenting over 2 years ago, only a few, less than ten still had active accounts. Most got muted by me for being excessive rude/negative/plagiarism, pretty much the only reasons I ever muted anyone.
I think being over negative or seeing only the negative side all the time has a much higher burn out than those that while they can see the negative, they prefer to focus on the positive, have less of a burn out issue.
Muted 90 people? That's like 80% of everyone here 😂. Love your view by the way; while I hope there's a spike soon, I keep blogging because, well, its fun
:D lols
A couple of them were not muted for to long, but as time went by, well, some just had to be. The only reason I am still here after 2 1/2 years is it is fun, I tried some of the other "social" sites, but they all fell kind of short, some things missing on steem but it at least is not as short on the social side as some other social sites.
Yup. I feel you
I do too as it has achieved both social and technological advancements in ways that haven't really been seen before. A decentralized community building an ecosystem together in a trustless environment is pretty cool.
The official burnout personalities probably are testament to this, and the numbers are growing. I have noted in my IRL work, that negative people tend to be the only ones who burn out in the workplace. They also almost invariably do not consider their position their responsibility, it was always something else they had no control over.
Interesting about the mute, I am not sure how many I have muted, but it can't be many. Is there a place to check?
I just use steemworld, you can copy and then past the list into a spreadsheet and get an auto count, or just a quick guesstimate by how many pages of people you have muted on steemworld. Looks like you have ten muted, on steemworld click the Followers tab button, then where it says Mode: {default is New (last 7 days)], click the drop down arrow, and then the last entry is Ignored (muted)
Well, I think @bashadow's procedure and answer address more directly this question. But just in case you are curious to know ¿Who've muted you? instead, you can enjoy the 'wisdom' of knowing who doesn't like the tone of your voice doing click right here. :)
I don't mind people muting me :)
Haha yeah! But anyway, knowledge is power!! :)
Pretty much all of my mutes are spamming accounts - and a couple of people I didn't want to see, like Stellabelle :D
