So an orca is making $86 (as of now), $49 of which comes from a bot account.
Reposting someone else's videos from YouTube.
Sums up the flaws in STEEM and why it won't take off until this is fixed
Good luck to you. Clearly you've found a way to make money on this platform. But for it to become something more, it needs to grow beyond these type of posts.
Yeah, these posts are fantastic.
I am not paying for it to be upvoted by a bot account. You are.
That's the difference
Every media platform on the Internet has paid promotion, and I'm lucky if I break even. Your post offers zero insight or value to the platform. If I wanted to just drop links, I can post 1000 times a day and not even break a sweat.
I am not saying my post has amazing value, I didn't ask for votes or pay for any.
My issue is with the flaws in STEEM where vote bots and whales seem to dominate. It's not a sustainable model.
I came to steem because I thought it was going to be a truly decentralised social media platform that rewards content creators.
But it's just a place for whales to make money. Which is why I am moving my investments elsewhere.
I will still post here as I like some of the people. But as an overall platform, it has a long way to go.
Who knows, if at the next fork something changes or the user base goes up, I might get my UK based crypto fund to make some major investments into STEEM
Can say that for all your posts. I put more thought and time into my post of just "sharing videos" as you say than your last 5 posts.
Unfortunately you didn't do your research very well.
If you look at my first few posts, you will see that I did put quite a lot of effort in. But I then realised steemit doesn't actually reward good content. So I switched to shorter and simpler things I wanted to share.
Anyway, thanks for taking time to read my replies and answer my questions. It's appreciated.
It might be hard for you to believe, but I would love to see steemit succeed and replace Facebook! But as a user, the experience hasn't been great. As an investor, I always look at the user experience.
