RE: Giving back to Minnows, as a Minnow

in #writing • 8 years ago

I'm with you @stevescoins

I think it's easy to overlook the likely consequence of focusing all our attention (voting) at the known (popular) authors, number one being that it discourages new users from making an effort to build their brand, causing them to give up.

I'm not going to go as far as saying that this is the current trend, but I will say that if it becomes a trend and the correct measures aren't taken to buck it, then Steemit will fail in time.

    There are some Whale movements to recognize new authors; curie, robinhood, etc

    They aren't going to be able to recognize every single author that deserves recognition.

    We are going to have to support each other as Minnows, and to look at the long run.

    In the long run, we build ourselves up to Whale status.

      That's the truth, brutha. Success usually requires grinding. Hand outs don't come around too often.
