How about the fact that this new technology is awakening a great sense of community?
Hmmm I'm actually much more pessimistic than u :D I don't really feel like the GREAT sense is there. There for sure is sense. But let's be real. Any average facebook group with interest for the same thing has community comparable with steemit. At least that's what I feel. What Steemit really is doing great is IMO awakening the creativity and in generat creator's mind in people. Cuz suddenly you have to create something. You suddenly start making videos altho u never done so before..etc etc.That's the great thing about steemit. It makes people do stuff. I don't really believe in the community thing tho. People come and go as soon as their find someone new who gives them bigger upvotes.
Edit: I guess it's different for people who r part of some project, like e.g u and TF. Then u have the community circle among urself. But I don't believe that much that big communities are creating on the Steemit forefront based on tags etc.
I agree with you, however I don't know how's FaceBook doing these days, I don't have mine for 3 years now. I think that here, due to the reward system, it sure creates a sense of helping each other more (at least on the groups I participate)
Now, when you say that the Steem kicks our creativity, that's absolutely true! There are opportunities for everything: photography, text, video, sound, etc etc we can explore it all in one place. Plus, it'll get even better once the SMTs are out.
The general tags are just terrible, it's a mess of posts in there, impossible to find stuff. To conclude, I guess that a good part of the Steem happens on Discord. I participate on some groups that are just fantastic, promoting topics and encouraging the users - and it's open for eveyone!
Shit that's what I gotta do more..that discord part :D
