What's the beauty of the zoo?
I think it's the fact that it has varieties of animals crawling, running and leaping around it.
Imagine this... If all the animals in the zoo were just Thompson's Gazelles, the zoo would only be amazing for a few minutes then.. Bingo! you're bored.
So that is steemit.. A zoo housing cryptography, sociality and an avenue of money.
This is it's fascinating beauty, but painfully, some people still pick only few parts of the app and drop others.
There are different groups of people on steemit-
There are those who were introduced into as a cryptocurrency
There are those who ssee it as a social platform
There are thise who umgainfully see it only as a source of money
There are those who believe they can help each other here
See,
These are different groups of people on steemit and this is what you'll see on your phone everyday.
Alot of people have been introduced to steemit as a 'money-making' platform while to some, it's just a larger social platform.
There are those who view it as a platform where they meet various people from several facets of life.
But,
What's the downside of being introduced with the idea of making money?
-You'll end up frustrated, begging for upvotes and resteems and that... Cripples the conmunity principle of helping everyone grow.
How does it affect the community?
-The minnows from the other groups are mostly to be negatively influenced by these sect.
How can it be curbed?
-Getting prior knowledge of what it(steemit) is all about before you even make your introductory post
This will help prevent spamming and inevitably, flagging.
So,
Happy steeming everyone.
