I've been on steemit for 5 months now and I haven't stopped talking about it since. Despite all my ranting and rambling, the number of Irish users on the platform is still really tiny. My own brother brought my whole family including both my parents to steemit. A large number of my friends have created accounts, but as long as they don't see their friends on steemit, they're not motivated to actually make that first daunting post.
Who could bring the Irish to steemit?
Most social media users these days are "lurkers". They read and click and scroll, without creating content and often without even commenting. While these users are important we first need the best content creators to bring them here.
Introducing @clisare
She has almost 70 thousand subscribers on her YouTube channel.
No she hasn't made an account yet ........ sigh......... But I'm hoping that my comment on her video will work as an invite to take a look and maybe bring some followers with her when she catches the steemit bug that I did.
She posts about anything and everything Irish and irrelevant to her irishness. This particular video I thought was very relevant for our community as many of us are revealing a lot of personal things permanently on a blockchain.
I commented on her video which you COULD give a thumbs up if you want to help get her attention.
(You might recognise her from a video I posted before on bad words in Irish)
I'm on a mission to get Irish content creators on steemit! Wish me luck!
