RE: Real Talk: The Future of Steem

in #steem6 years ago

I appreciate your comment. I like the concept of share2steem and agree that it will reach a lot of users, but are these users really going to be happy on Steem? I mean somebody with 1.2 million followers, will feel completely under appreciated on Steem. And the current interface is simply lacking of the modern style.

I believe we need to fix the UI and economic model of Steem first, before we bring people here from other platforms. Especially since the reward pool shouldn't be used for people simply coming to Steem to get some rewards, but for those wanting to participate in the system - who are powering up Steem and play the game.

I agree on the "to get some rewards part" but using the reward pool to get people to come to Steem who also bring a lot of followers (who stay and contribute) is worthy IMO. That's real added value in return for the rewards.

I agree with your point 100% but I would say that yes those people will feel appreciated because will be compensated. it's also a fertile recruiting ground because they can have their followers follow them on Steam where they both get paid. It's the best way to grow membership but like you suspect it's very one-sided. my thought is if we have an active user base because they're sharing on Instagram anyway then we can attract more development because the users are here. we will never be able to compete with social media like Instagram so recruiting their members and offering them something it's a good plan. I don't see much growth in quality membership here and it worries me
