I found the #thealliance through the banners at the end of @reko and @nainaztengra's posts, as well as @nainaztengra bringing it up during a chat I believe.
I'd like to be a part of #thealliance due to getting tired of seeing white noise posts make hundreds while I consistently see talented and unique new users unfamiliar with the platform's idiosyncratic mechanics fail to crack $1 STU. I do genuinely believe in steem.it despite the obvious warehouse full of loopholes, and for it to succeed it needs to be able to retain talent. I've tried to help people out when I can but often the new systems I introduce just scares them off further. #thealliance seems the better option, possessing funds, numbers, knowledge, and attention span I just don't have alone.
I can offer #thealliance original content, unpredictability, audience engagement, and a new focus on colloboration (see my latest post), as well as my "crew" of talented content creators (@bigbraincciuto @dometech @ankapolo)
Here's three posts of mine I like:
