RE: Let's Talk—Why Is Facebook Treating Steemit URLs as Spam? (UPDATE: It's Deleting My Post In 30 Days Now!)

in #steemit7 years ago

A lot of comments here suggesting Facebook are scared of the future of social media, ie Steemit.
Sure, they're probably onto what Steemit is and are aware of it, and maybe it is true that they are starting to bury Steemit.com posts just like they bury Youtube clips now to favour their own videos.

But how long until the Zuckercoin comes out and everyone goes back to Facebook?

I've been on Steemit for 3 days and I really like it's potential. But if it doesn't get it's "user friendliness" up to par with the likes of FB then they're sitting ducks just waiting for it all to be pulled out from underneath.
I'm trying to get my mum on here so she can see if she can make some coin off the amount of dog pictures she posts haha, but it's not a very easy platform to grasp to some.

Thanks for the post. I'm interested in other's thoughts on this.

Really good point. I struggle with that too, just wish it was a little easier and more pleasing to the eye. I think there is a learning curve that might make it hard for people to adjust, especially if you are not used to making content. It is a bit more effort, but when you think about all the work we do for FREE for FB, it's kinda worth it. Bet your mum would do well! Hahaha, good luck! @ecoknowme
