Is Steemit , Face Book, Tweeter , Instagram (social media ) full of Fools?
Social media is fraught with weird characters and many great people too however many unintelligent people have flooded social media –especially Facebook with information’s that can make a grown man scream in despair –which resulted to people forgetting the big picture here : Knowledge.
Here are some few points:
Steemit is different: The reward system at steemit has made people to bring out their best when posting article and to avoid childish or weird posts like selfies ( when they are in the toilette ) due to the flagging system here. However steemit has its limitations example are those who post a single pictures of cat, bees , flower, birds, house etc without any explanatory notes.
Facebook: many ignorant people have been caught for crimes they posted on FB
One example is the below woman who advertised to sell her 2 kids in order to pay for the bail cost of her boyfriend.

Knowledge and relationship: Social media is full of knowledge and great relationship opportunities. One good example is steemit where members can learn new things daily and build solid relationships with intelligent people by joining their groups and or communities, asking questions, learning new things and making new contacts. This is how social media should be however most (especially Facebook) are flooded with unintelligent people, posting crimes, selfies and weird stuffs like the one below:

Ethereum lyte (Elyte) is the next best thing. Offering just 1m tokens as total supply with far less circulation supply, top visible team see https://www.elyte.biz/ , excellent and innovative product plus deflationary nature ie token- therefore early adopters of Elyte are already smiling as they see bright future in their investments because price has shot up over 3K% since inception just 4 weeks ago even as they are yet to be listed on Coin market cap (coming soon). Therefore , we decide to give out this social media bounty in order to share tour tokens to the masses who appreciates the ingenuity of elyte.
I agree with you man, Steemit is really the platform for all the writers and bloggers to meet like minded people, and create a good relationship with them. It also helps to learn the writer like us to learn new things, Afterall no one is too old to learn something new.
I also agree with you facebook, is although good for social interaction with friends and family but it is filled with various sort of people who want nothing more than to fraud you or to cause you harm.
I have recently read a in news that Facebook is facing issues of fake news-where there are many idiots who just want increase the visitors to there page post fake news, also many hater in oder to discredit some persons post fake information about them. But, Steemit doesn't have that problem because of its voting system, as if any idiot who tried to post false information then, the community will itself flag him and because of one person one account policy he will be difficult for him to create a new account.
Facebook has done more harm than good to any person & Steemit is something which will in coming future become revolutionize the entire social media, when the number of its users will match that of Facebook.
Very good comment, thanks.
I would agree to what you say about social media in general. But you know, when you look at it in terms of a large average of people, it is mostly stupidity that prevails on social media. Especially with the selfie trend, the attention seeking attitude and over the past few years, the rise of fake news and the inability of people to sift between facts and nonsense. But social media also has a lot of intelligent people on it. The reason we don't see them often is because they are too busy to be posting or doing stupid things.
The problem with most social media is that it doesn't demand quality, and you are basically interacting with friends, and most of them will be either like you. So stupidity is followed by more stupidity.
However steemit has its limitations example are those who post a single pictures of cat, bees , flower, birds, house etc without any explanatory notes. - This will be a trend that will continue. However, most of these users will not be around for long because of Steemit's culture.
Very good comment indeed, I agree. Also following you to stay in touch...keep steeming.

Steemit is different and most people understands that quickly. However, we have many users here who're posting just a selfie or two in attempts to get rewards... But these people usually quit and leaves Steemit when they realize that Steemit is not the new Instagram.
Good point, I agree..especially the flower, cat, bee etc posters lol
