Hello ,
I am new to steemit , and when I first discovered it I was really overwhelmed , thinking that Facebook and its ways might come to end or be forced to change in a radical way .
As I see things I think that facebook has many glorious days to look forward too as I am a bit dispointed in steemit and the sort of "elististe way it works ....
All I have sen for now are people that argue sometimes on the feeds , just like facebook , people that put on wondrful contents and that are not even looked at because they are not really part of the steem elite or family ....
So i am wondering when you have a mass of people on a network doesn't it in the end work like our human socity works : rich get richer , poor stay poor , popular stay popular etc .....
The really positive point is that there are no ads and the trolling can be contained here , the contents are 90% of the time very interesting ... And the fact that uses the Blockchain tech which is quite revolutionary and we are only at the begining of it .
Do you really think steemit can take over FB ?
Steemit is not yet very popular here in France , and I feel quite alone as I am no one or yes I am someone with fears , a story to tell even if I can be shy , hopes and dreams just like EVERYONE .
I am from Argentina and I share some of your thoughts ( love you country by the way, i did my thesis in Tarbes, Midi-Pyrénées) , but here are some tips:
Steem and steemit is yet very very very new
You can compare with facebok but is not a new social media, its a disrruptive one, is onother creature, it will take time and they can co-exists, think that in the early beginnings of internet, people would think which 5 webs would you use more, and if you see now there are millons of web and each person uses houndresds of them for differents things, same thing will happen with blockchain, there is no winner or no five wonners, there will be houndreds...
Also, I started to post in english because the community at it most speaks that language, but later on there will be a place for each other, so I will star posting in my native language and you should too, it is very googd that you are one of the "firsts" french people on steem, you are a pioneer!
à bientôt!!
Also, the elit people here have Thousands of posts, so, when we reach that quantity and also with their quality we could see if that is the true, which I don´t know now, but thats the only way to know..
AH Tarbes ! I did my studies at the university of Pau !
What a small world ! WE have to keep contact am foloowing you now !
I will also post in french soon and I think that everyday I will have a look at the newcommers and give them a thumbs up , after all if steem wants more people how about making them feel welcome and giving them a little power up ! I think that would be just faire ..... A bientôt mon steemami ;)
Sorry for the delayed answer! Yes, suere! Pau! My french profesor lives there Thierry Coudert, and I remember the Castle! Beautifull there!! à la prochaine aussi mon steemami !!!
Hi. You took the time to make a Good comment (thought out, & not too short). So just keep doing that -- keep those 'fingers flying'..
*I upvoted you, in case u did not realize (not 'cause I want anything in return, but because you did a fairly good comment ).
And Also, I suggest you get some good premium images (buy some, it doesnt cost all that much) - that'll help you, in the long run.
And EDIT some of the Images to make them UNIQUE !
That's what I like to do. The more unique one can make 'em, the Better ☻
The editing program I invested in is called Adobe Elements ♦♦ Take time, do some research into editing programs, & Go girl, go.
Keep the Faith -- Jan
I think i have improved a little !
