I strongly appeal to any reader to go through to the end as the million user target might be at stake if we could not retain the newbies/minnows on Steemit...
About 5 of the users i had brought in on Steemit are no more interested, speaking to one of them few days ago and she told me Steemit is a Caucus, and if you ain’t in you end up getting shitty rewards.
This and several “Leave me alone dude response” is what i get each time i tried to talk to this people and i am very positive many of us are experiencing this.
If it was me after 3months of posting profoundly or thereabout and i made less than $50 in total i will bail as well, so i was compelled to write this.
Arguably the past few months had been the wrongest time to join steemit. So to say, if you came onboard last year and earlier this year; then you will know and enjoy what Blockchain Blogging really is.
Doing the maths: where are those hundreds of new users we have seen signing up in some posts we see week in week out? If by addition Steemit Users should be getting close to half a Million by now that’s if this users stays!
Now on Steemit, if you can not buy a vote or cajole a dolphin to upvote you; or maybe carry out a project, then you are on your own and all you get from your blogging efforts is some tiny little cents.
I have been getting complaints "like i own steemit" and been accused of not voting with full power like some Whale because some of this folks assumed that i should give them huge bucks in votes as i drag them on steemit.
What this New Steemians do not understand is that something is fundamentally wrong and no matter how much you try and reach out for help you are going to get disappointed because only few bigger fishes gives a hoot about minnows anymore except fellow minnows.
Not everyone could buy votes for every blog, not all are designed to lobby for upvotes. So if you can not do any of the things mentioned irrespective of how remarkable your work is, what are your chances of staying put on Steemit?
Many kind hearted and selfless Individuals had tried and delegated SP to help minnows grow in rewards and encourage them: but then you have selfish and cabals of Merry voters in charge of this Delegated SP as curators, and then the go on and on wasting this votes on themselves and their group negating the sole purpose of this Kind Hearted SP donors.
Peradventure this is considered as an hate article, i apologise; That is if anyone reads to this point before snapping! This days once a Steemian is not posting proof of life pictures of events, nobody reads to the end.
Could we call this Blogging?
Hopefully the next Hardfork addresses this and has something good for freshers and minnows; otherwise as we bring them in they will keep leaving after a couple of months, which to me is not healthy when we go mainstream!
If you had read this to this point, and you had lost some of the people you successfully brought in on steemit; then you might understand how it feels to build and it keeps falling down to pieces.
