Getting established on Steemit now doesn't seem all that different to how it was two years ago.
People keep freaking out how long it takes to set up a new account. The sign up page says it will take 1-2 weeks. Did it? No, it took three days.
I was wondering how there can be so many 25er's. But as soon as I did a post I ceased to be a 25'er. So basically any account with a rep of 25 hasn't done a single post. Which means they are probably all cubicle farm monkey's with fake accounts.
From now on if I encounter a 25'er who has been on Steemit for more than a day I'm going to let rip on their pathetic arse. Unless they are a whale, in which case I will probably suck up to them, even if I secretly think they are about on a level with killary klinton.
What do you start out with in your wallet now? - two years ago you were given $5 to get started - now you are not, and you are penniless. Except that you do get loaned 15 Steem, so you could buy a small bag of drugs
What sort of response does an introduce yourself post get now? For a while in 2017 they got quite a few upvotes and you could make a few dollars. If you were a hot looking babe with a low cut top you could retire and buy a Lambo. Now nobody gives a toss about introduce yourself posts and you will only earn about 40 cents. So it's about the same as two years ago.
To get followers you still need to do posts and comments. Is it harder to get started? I think it's harder than six months ago but about the same as two years ago.
So what I think so far is that it's no harder to get started now than it was two years ago and everyone whining about how hard it is wouldn't have done much good two years ago either.
Yes I'm saying useless millenials need to stop moaning and pull their fingers out of their arses.
The next thing I've been wondering is why do people follow so many other people? Does that create return followers? I suspect not, but now I'm going to follow 1000 accounts and see if anything happens
