RE: Must Read! Facebook is Throttling or Shadow Banning Steemit Posts.

in #steemit8 years ago

Upvoted and resteemed.
I have previously read about this type of practice with FB. < the greedy incestual coitus mongers> From what I remember reading, FB average posts reach only about 7-10% of a patron's 'friends.' I also remember a ploy that one could PAY FB to reach more people! <some idiots actually do this!> This should tell people FB is censoring. What I read also supported what @alienbutt and @builderofcastles reported about 'friends' not receiving posts. According to the article I read, EVEN IF ONE PAYED FB TO EXPAND THE POST, FRIENDS ARE STILL NOT GUARANTEED TO RECEIVED IT!. My questions are, "Then, who would? Shouldn't my 'friends' receive my posts? Isn't that why 'friends' exist on FB? Why should I have to pay at all; isn't FB supposed to be FREE?" and finally "WHY would I WANT to be on FB at all?"

I can answer the last question, at least: "I don't," and I haven't.

I wish I could remember where I read this post, but it was a year or two ago, and I have slept since then.

In my opinion, Steemit is the only worthwhile social media platform.
Thank you for your post and reminding me how happy I am to not have been sucked in by the childish, high-school mentality of FB.

Sadly since social media is my business I have to build bridges to all of the other platforms. I still find some value in FB just not very much.
