I have lost all hope for steemit today. My 2 latest blogs was instantaneously downvoted for absolutely no reason, with no explanation.
It has become painfully clear that steemit is a platform for prominent figures of different corners of the crypto-communities raking in free money while all the plebs are desperately spitting out post after post on socio-economics just to get a few pennies if they are lucky, and an instant downvote, rendering their work pointless, if they are unlucky.
I had huge hopes for steemit, but it is all lost now.
I will make a bot to upvote posts of prominent members, maybe make a bot downvoting all the people who downvoted me unrightfully and besides that, just tell everyone i know to stay the hell away from steemit.
