RE: Steemit Motivation Rant
It's not really about that, though. Voting arrangements are done in the chat, on Discord, wherever. The content has never been the deciding factor.
It's just that it used to be at least to a point. It wasn't the main thing even at the beginning, but it was a thing.
Never before has it mattered less.
True, but I think it can and will degenerate even further. In ancient Rome there were several steps after sycophantry, patronage, clientelism, and vote buying and selling had been accepted as the normal state of things. I actually found it interesting to watch unfold here, but it just tires me now.
I have noticed it tires quite many.
Imagine how depressing it would be that the content actually does matter - and that's why you are not getting large votes (and neither am I) ;)
I mean, it's possible.
