I'm super hyped I found this site but my mother has second opinions. Could she be right? After spending hours trying to convince her why Steem, Steem Power, Steem Dollars and Steemit were the coolest things to hit planet Earth, she made one very convincing point I'm having a hard time arguing with. See, although Steemit might be cool because it spits out Steem every time you post or vote, my mother, who is 67, simply said, "I made all my money. I don't need Steem. I want to be entertained. So far, I can't find anything good on Steemit that's entertaining." And she's right. Perhaps if you are into cryptocurrencies and the whole Haejin/BernieSanders thing, this place is for you. But my mom just likes random, crazy, entertaining content. She loves Facebook for this. It's then I realized why Steemit is not actually the replacement for Facebook I was hoping for. Because most people on here are so caught up in trying to gain money/votes, they're afraid to post something that won't get money. That leads to boring, predictable content, most of which is plagiarized from youtube. Could Steemit be on a one way path to the content garbage chute? Let me know your opinions. I need to know Steemit is a place that will appreciate the work I wish to bring here, and not just try to get in on the curation votes.
