There is a new change.
It might be your first if you just joined Steemit.
Steemit was promoted as:
- Better social media as facebook
- You earn for posting
- Freedom of speech.
- A place where good content is promoted.
Steemit is:
- Social media where you can not engage (talk) to other people without SP (steem power)
- You earn zero if no one notices you.
- You can post what you like and can be flagged.
- A place where communities promote good content but no one knows what it is or cares about it.
Steemit will be:
- The place where it is hardly impossible to engage unless you get help or by Steem.
- You earn less if your post does not have a vote of 20 steem or more.
- You will loose every cent if someone flags you.
- You better be carefull to whom you say what.
- You can be flagged without a reason.
- You should never vote in the first 5 minutes content is posted and you should not vote on a comment.
- Investors earn.
Which options do you have?
- Find people who help you.
- Post more, and more and more.
- Join contests.
- Power up all your earnings on post 100% instead of 50/50.
- Buy Steem and be a whale yourself.
- Leave. There are more and better places to be. Do not focus on Steemit alone.
Is Steemit the right place for writers to be?
No. This is not the place where quality content is found. You take risks posting your complete article, stories, books here. Few votes, being flagged will harm you.
Steemians generally speaking do not care about good content. Most do not like to read and will never read your story.
It is a fable Steemit cares or is promoting it. They do not. Good for them means posts with upvotes over 20 steem = more income.
