RE: This Is Not Just Another Post About Steem

in #life5 years ago (edited)

Nobody gives a shit on Facebook or twitter what the Facebook or twitter devs or server admins have to say.

When nobody on STEEM gives a shit what steem says about steem, that's when you know steem has gone mainstream.

Until then we are a snake eating our own tail.

Yeah, there's a bit of satire here. At this point though, I don't mind the genuine Steem content. Some hype, actual news, it's all good. Balance is key at this stage though. What happened in the past should be a lesson learned. Long ago Steem content was overly popular, so many folks dropped their original plans and began writing about Steem, chasing that money, and the posts became disingenuous. Today, I just wanted to write jokes. I've written plenty of Steem content and it's hard not to after these changes. Eventually things should balance out again. Even when a new tribe pops up, folks talk about the tribe, a lot. Then things simmer down and folks settle back into their grooves. Enjoy the ride. There's a huge demand for the everything else content and those producing it often stand out.

I get it. Early adopters care about meaningful progress being made. There's definitely a place for it, but the natural progression should be that it fades into the background. The rate at which people tune into it should drop over time if steem is successful IMHO. I want people to be so caught up in agnostic content and DApps that they aren't interested in witness and dev drivel.

I'm hoping the future front page consists of top posts picked from tribes and communities. Something like that. We'll get there eventually, provided people don't give up. One of my most recent suggestions was to set up an 'announcements' tab. Having all of the development news and Steem content organized into one space only makes sense. We see how well it works with tribes. They'd actually have more visibility that way because the consumer can simply click and go.
