RE: "Strassenmusikant" - A Typical Viennese Song For Steemit's Randowhale And Those Kind Of Votes We Might Need Or Not?

in #fishing4votes8 years ago

I really think it's up to you to decide why you are here...
For me, not comming from the crypto world but from the social media side, at first the goal was to attract people to see my pictures. What's the value of photo's if nobody sees them and why photographing to keep the results somewhere on a harddrive?
Now I have to admit that the upvote part is also fun... it helped me discover the whole new world of cryptocurrencies, a world that I knew exist but I never checked out before. Fascinating...
So, I think there is nothing wrong in your way of working... as long as you stick to the first rule (in my eyes) : post quality content.

BTW: I want to take the opportunity to thank you very much for your continued support! It's really appreciated 👍

We all have different reasons why we are here @pixelfan and I do understand yours. I am enjoying the many up, down and all around rides since day one I am playing in the cryptoworld through steemit. I've seen so many changes that I am still dizzy. Now it's about those paid votes. Every Hardfork there is something else coming up. So, I tested those votes for a while but I don't like it that much because I wish for a human dominated community, not ruled by some bots who even vote for #shitposts and new bots will be developed to follow those bots and so on .....I am here because I enjoy human interaction getting to know incredibly interesting characters. I am here because I am fascinated by the concept of a paid but high quality people platform....it was just a dream.....utopia might exist but where ??

I’m not here for a long time so I’m not aware of the developments since the beginning of this platform. But I do have some experience with social media and “paid” blogging platforms…
It’s my experience that as soon money is involved you will have an increase of #shitposts and #shitusers and… on this platform, bots. All in the hope to gain some easy and quick money. But there is no such thing as easy and quick money, at least not for the majority of users… so they will go away after some time. Of course, they will be replaced by others… who will go away too… and so on, and so on…
But I also do believe that there is a “niche” where users that are interested in real content will stay. Of course those are also interested in the money-part, otherwise they would not be here.(let’s be honest, the interface of steemit right now is not that fabulous 😄)
So, in my opinion, if you carefully select who to follow… your high quality people platform can exist.
