With all the complaining about people lately, I can only say that the Steem may rest in peace. I warned for this from the very first day I was here. The whale structure in Steemit would destroy everything and almost 1 year later it turns out my prophecy became reality. With the authoritarian behavior of the whales in which they upvoted their friends, insanely rewarded posts for telling Steem was the best thing made by mankind, ... it was clear to me that Steemit would not survive. But apparently it became worse. Whales are now even downvoting content liked by many people. Steemit has converted into the FED trying to supress gold (quality content) to preserve their coin. What a shame this poor Steemit has become.
I want to thank Steemit for the amazing first weeks in which I made some good money. I had to work my ass of to find a way to make money but it was worth the challenge. Unfortunately, with Yours and Akasah being released this year I see Steemit becoming obosolete. Steemit had such a big advantage due to being the first. But the whales gave people such a distaste that I believe many Steemers will dump Steemit from the moment Yours or Akasah is out. Steemit will die and the whales are to blame.
The Steem is dead. May it rest in peace.
