One of my favourite groups on Reddit is AskReddit. As a whole I found Reddit fairly unpleasant although this did vary by subreddit (ones with good moderators could be okay), but I did like scrolling through the sometimes funny and sometimes informative AskReddit questions. Occasionally I would ask my own questions and often actually got good responses. I would love to see us start to develop a similar space on Steemit.
There are a few challenges:
- Naming - Asksteem is not good as there is already the asksteem.com search engine and an unrelated
user account (which tried to do something similar but seems to have been abandoned). It seems like an #asksteemit tag would be the best. This leads to issue two though ...
- I have written previously the lack of standardised tags and filters which mean it can be hard to see questions coming through, particularly if you aren't following a person (although I find that I often miss posts of those I follow too).
- Lack of awareness - this is where you come in. Start using the #asksteemit tag and resteem this post. Maybe we can make this a tag that outdoes askreddit (we already have the good sense of community).
What do you think? Would you like to see an #asksteemit tag/space (and is #asksteemit the best tag to use)?
