RE: What the Hell? To Post or Not to Post on Steemit.

in #publishing7 years ago

I have had a similar thought here. It's really weird to think that I couldn't delete what I post even if I wanted to. There has to be a certain level of self censorship because there is no take backs here. Maybe block chain social media is the cure for the cancer that is the comments section of Facebook or YouTube. You really have to be your best self here.

Sort:  

That would be lovely wouldn't it? To stop some of the venomous spew that leaves peoples' fingers as they type whatever thought that comes into their head, just to troll others with. Our words are throwaway now, no more important than a paper plate, it would seem. I disagree, and reserve my words for what I feel serves a purpose, even if it's only a single sentence. I still see the irrelevant, often silly attempts at grabbing a few cents with some replies, those "hey, like me and read my stuff" posts, but it's still better than some of the things you see on social media. Thanks for checking me out! :)
