I have noticed alot of posts specifically about steemit. Nothing about the community or about real life events in which impact us all equally? I see alot of posts of non importance being upvoted by the simple fact they talk highly of steemit. "steemit the new central bank" "steemit the future" Great as steemit is it is not everything people are claiming it is. (yet) They are simply writing these articles to gain upvotes just as social media do with click bait advertising.
To me i find it highly irritating that many important subjects or information is being missed and/or over looked in the place of "My love for steemit" I personally refuse to upvote anything that too me seems like click bait. Ones love for a platform is self evident in my case, I love steemit but i hardly see how thats important too the rest of the steemit community? I mean i personally write on other forums accross the internet about steemit as too attract potential people whom may have an opinion or something important too communicate.
We need to stop allowing the "Steemit is love, Steemit is life" posts which are created for no other reason that too entice upvoting, essentially click back for steemit. I am not denying how good this platform is, just feel alot of people are falling for the click bait within this platform. Steemit is about idea's and information not reaffirming what we already know about steemit.
It saddens me to see some very impressive posts go completely unnoticed in favor of why david thinks steemit is cool. Steemit is indeed very cool but lets not block whats important too talk about the platform itself. Important public announcements being an exception or a blog documenting your experiences are fine, Please no more Steemit will make me millions posts...... Lets use this forum how it should be used! Lets make this the place to be for information from around the world.
Steemit represents every corner of the globe, I personally want to see steemit mentioned all over facebook as an auto advertisement. When i watch a youtube video a steemit add pops up. That can't happen when the majority of what we talk about is steemit itself. Lets show people its not just the clickbait that can get upvotes and what is important should also get an upvote!
(The irony being me talking about steemit on steemit moaning about people talking specifically about steemit.)
