RE: I AM THINKING ABOUT LEAVING STEEMIT DUE TO A FATAL FLAW IN THE DESIGN!

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I agree you should be able to edit your post in any time, but to be honest when you do that in every other social networks? Almost never.

Deleting your account should be option, but who cares in the end. If you post your truth, why should you be shamed by your posts and because of it delete your account? I agree there should be that option, but in my opinion not so important in the end.

Yes, there are some options that should be better and they might be in future, but we should look at Steemit in bigger picture...

There is no corporation that can censor your post here. Only censorship can happen from other people on network. I saw Fascistube removed few of your videos recently. That won't happen here.

Also you can earn cryptocurrency here, compare that to multi million profit Fascistborg and Twitter leave only for them selves.

In my experience, this is much more friendlier place then Fascistbook and other social networks. One guy without my knowledge set up fundraiser for me here on Steemit because I had toughest year of my life (my dad died, lost my job, didn't have place to live,...). Because of it, I bought new PC and big screen, all with cryptocurrency Steem and Steem Dollars. I recently wrote appreciation post about it: Link. Saw many other examples like that here. That would never happen on Fascistborg and other social networks.

Steemit have many positive sides, but we are dealing with people so of course there are some some trying only to make money on Steemit. But that is not problem of Steemit, it would happen everywhere. There is no perfect social network because people are not perfect.

You are using Fascistube even they are total bullshiters. Compare Steemit to Fascistube and everything else that exist on internet and decide is it more fair? Many pluses with few minuses. That minuses are human behaviour, but you can't avoid that totally. Also those few minuses you mention, who say it won't change eventually? Also, those minuses are not so much big deal. Only problem Steemit have is big difference between people with huge ammount of Steem power (influence on network with big upvotes) and people like you and me with little bit of Steem power. But if anyone joined Steemit only because of money, he don't see whole picture. Money aspect is just one of aspects of Steemit. This network is not about quick buck, it's about being fair and receive few bucks for your posts. Sometimes it will be more, sometimes less, but either way million times more then Fascistborg or Twitter. Much more fair eco system then other social networks.

I decided to stay so it's all good. I still have those objections but it's too good otherwise to pass up. I can live with it.
