Playboy To Exit Facebook: Another chance for Steemit to get more market share?

in #education7 years ago (edited)

Do you know that Karma can strike ruthlessly? Remember few weeks ago (see my older posts for details) I posted about Facebook ban on all crypto adverts due to their fake reason of protecting their members from the evil scams of crypto´s. Now it is clear that Facebook plus its capitalist gangs (Google, Tweeter , banks et al) are the evil doers not crypto platform like steemit or Elyte (https://elyte.tech/ ) .
Moreover, current campaign to delete Facebook accounts is being promoted on tweeter -see my former post here for details

Most recently, according to CNBC news

Playboy suspends activity on Facebook in wake of the data scandal
Playboy said Wednesday that it would be exiting Facebook and deactivating each of its accounts.
Cooper Hefner, Playboy's chief creative officer and son of the late Hugh Hefner, called Facebook "sexually repressive."
Calls to delete Facebook have taken momentum in the wake of the data sharing scandal.

Conversely, however, I do understand that many people will say that Playboy do not have the moral authority to accuse Facebook of immoral behavior due to its business segment- however do not forget that playboy is a top brand and has millions of community behind it, so this issue is a big deal.
In light of all these issues and negative press against Facebook, don’t you guys see a once in life time opportunity for steemit inc to boost its advert in targeting Facebook members (let them know that there is a place they can make some money with their data`s , learn about cryptos and meet smart people) and even make this platform more appealing to top companies and common masses? Here are some few points:

Go for Opportunity: It is argued that opportunity comes but once, therefore as Facebook is having these issues, it is time for all steemians to inform their contacts to move to steemit. Moreover, it is also time for steemit to make this platform more appealing to new members , reward minnows more (those with good contents) through its upcoming Hfork 20 which will make it possible to open an account without delay , take care of scammy bots, be more appealing to communities and friends -chat / sharing of information.

Conclusion: My aim is not to kill Facebook because it will never happen. In fact millions of people will continue to share their childhood pictures, selfies, children pictures, fake news and gossips on Facebook (which is good). However, Facebook demise is an opportunity for steemit to gain more market share in social media segments , however we all have to act.

Hello @charles1, Nice to meet you!

I'm a guide dog living in KR community. I can see that you want to contribute to KR community and communicate with other Korean Steemians. I really appreciate it and I'd be more than happy to help.

KR tag is used mainly by Koreans, but we give warm welcome to anyone who wish to use it. I'm here to give you some advice so that your post can be viewed by many more Koreans. I'm a guide dog after all and that's what I do!

Tips:

  • If you're not comfortable to write in Korean, I highly recommend you write your post in English rather than using Google Translate.
    Unfortunately, Google Translate is terrible at translating English into Korean. You may think you wrote in perfect Korean, but what KR Steemians read is gibberish. Sorry, even Koreans can't understand your post written in Google-Translated Korean.
  • So, here's what might happen afterward. Your Google-Translated post might be mistaken as a spam so that whales could downvote your post. Yikes! I hope that wouldn't happen to you.
  • If your post is not relevant to Korea, not even vaguely, but you still use KR tag, Whales could think it as a spam and downvote your post. Double yikes!
  • If your post is somebody else's work(that is, plagiarism), then you'll definitely get downvotes.
  • If you keep abusing tags, you may be considered as a spammer. It may result to put you into the blacklist. Oops!

I sincerely hope that you enjoy Steemit without getting downvotes. Because Steemit is a wonderful place. See? Korean Steemians are kind enough to raise a guide dog(that's me) to help you!

Woff, woff! 🐶

I like Koreans ..hahaha and nice doggy.

I making the most of your perspective that Playboy ought not be dissed on taking a position because of an absence of saw profound quality. Also I do concur that the crypto promotions boycott is a phony good position. Amway, Herbal Life and different MLMs can promote and are not viewed as risky for the shopper.

This is indeed an opportunity to get many Facebook members onboard steemit . However as you rightfully indicated, sign up time must be solved including making here more appealing for new and older members and not only few elites. Good post indeed, upped-100%

Wow good point indeed...now is surely the time to be proactive and get move them facebook members here...at least the good ones hahaha

Wow! What a photo! Without words!

Playboy died with Hugh!

Awwww am not sure of that...many men still like seeing beautiful women isnt it?

Playboy died when Hugh's daughter, last November, decided to put a man in the centerfold. Insulting and disgusting.

What is so funny, bot?

This is one of the best post i have read on steemit. I will go down on my knees and pray to God for playboy to delete all its accounts on Facebook. I have been on Facebook since early 2008 and have wasted thousands of naira on data without something to show for it in return. There was a time i am on Facebook into the middle of the night on daily basis, the end result is that the quick wit gets billions and sleeps tight while i am not too far from where I started. Steemit is the real deal and I support boycotting of Facebook by all and sundry especially a financial mogul like playboy. Thank you for sharing.

Very good point, I feel your pain too...More success to you here.

Even Zuckerberg is getting on board with Steemit.

Wow, that will be gooooooooddddd. Hahaha but we can do without him.

super funny but indeed we don't need these sort of people just there users

Do we really need him on steemit? I think it will be better for him to steer clear of this community, he is not cut out for a community like steemit.

The power of the Steemit community will never allow Zuckerberg to be successful on Steemit.

Unless you pay, it's worth very little

Facebook is the most popular social media. Now Facebook will find it very hard to hold its position.

Point, especially after all its greed

Saw the light when I came on board here. Don't think I've been on facebook since I got here, it's simply a waste of time there.
