Vlog 107 | Is Steemit Self Obsessed?

I recently read an article that suggested steemit is self obsessed. It looked at 1,262 top trending topics in the month of April... Big surprise steemit showed up more often than not, but does this mean steemit is self obsessed? Here is the article https://steemit.com/steem/@online-scribe/steemit-is-self-obsessed-a-review-of-1-262-top-trending-titles

Now it doesn't really get into any statistics or determine how it was determined that steemit shows up a lot. And I would argue the data isn't statistically significant anyways as eurorack show's up in the list which is definitely not a trending topic on steem. seriously I get notifications daily when someone mentions eurorack in a post and It's normally just me, or maybe Hive account@drumoperator. So despite the statement that "The key highlight of what I found is: Steem and Steemit were the most mentioned topics." we don't really have any data showing us that this is the case or know how the author arrived at this conclusion. But even if there is some statically valid analysis that steemians talk about steem alot, which I am sure someone could find, I don't think that means steemit is self obsessed, as steemit has no self. or at least not in the way we normally think of a self. Steemit isn't talking about steemit, the community of steemit is talking about steemit and that is a totally different thing and important for steemit to be successful.

I hope everyone has an awesome day!!

peace
