If users can earn sphere tokens for participating in the platform like steemit. It will beat the purpose of facebook
I am not sure if I would want to see snother Steemit. It is full of shit content, plagiarism of pictures and texts and other shit to collect money. Not to forget all this shit bot upvotes. You get no real share if you sre not doing something absolutely great like being a programmer or using this shit bots to get upvotes. Otherwise you end with nothing but maybe 10Cent or so.
Is Steemit better than bitcointalk forum? Regarding both rules and opportunities to get money.
i don't know if it's better at reaching people but for sure looks more professional
Steemit is totally different from BitcoinTalk. You can't compare eggs with alien spaceships.
And I am not so sure if Steemit looks so much more professional. Actually the current design is a catastrophe, same as the functionality.
BitcoinTalk looks dated because it is. The UI hasn't been updated in years which is a shame.
Steemit is a blogging platform. It's not made for discussions over a long time.
In my opinion Steemit is a sad commentary of how fraudulent cryptospace can be. Had to look really hard for good topics or blogs. The reward system or steem power has rendered a group of people so powerful that the contents in the eco system has become monopolised. Bitcointalk, on the other hand, is a better goose in terms of functionality. That the admins are proactive in removing spammers is laudable but yes the interface looks dated. Now, I have explored several community/forum cms with great functions and UIs. But they are not as powerful as simplemachine cms this forum is based on and the load on the server with so many users will be enormous. This dated look here is because the admins have deliberately made the choice of prioritizing performance over aesthetics. If they wanted, they can migrate the whole thing in 24 hours to a better looking CMS but that's not the answer, is it?
Don't forget reddit guys. It's very good to read opinions there. I like projects which have a big community there the most.
