RE: Think Steemit Feels Like a Ghost Town? Now's Your Time to SHINE!
My thoughts exactly. Steemit has been a ghost town lately, I'll admit to posting less however we should all keep our quality up. There are still many people who have realized that quantity is more rewarding than quality and aren't ashamed to post low quality often. A few hundred words and a relevant or high quality original photo is a standard for my support.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment @crypticat! I think that you hit the nail on the head with the whole quantity over quality thing. It's definitely a bit of an issue. For example, let's say there are two people working on making content all week. The first one posts something everyday and the second one works all week on making something truly amazing and spectaculr. Who's going to earn more? The first guy... hands down. It's the opposite on YouTube because the goal is to go viral. That only happens if your content is amazing and really stands out .
I'm not necessarily saying that one is better than the other - but being honest about the type of content our system encourages is important.
