RE: For the First Time, I Might Be Losing Faith in Steem...
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
It isn't censorship. It is a few people being assholes.
Steem-blogging lacks property rights and the freedom of (dis)association. You don't have the ability to disengage with people. And that's why steem-blogging cannot work. When 5 mentally unstable people can ruin the experience for thousands of other users, it's just going to fail.
The silver lining is that tribes (and hopefully communities) do have property rights. If someone is being a jackass on palnet or steemleo or any of the other tribes, they can just be muted by the community leaders. So while steem-blogging can't work, tribes and communities at least have the possibility of working.

Correct. All the other front ends show that post normally. On steemit.com, it takes a couple of clicks to see it.
I agree with you in part. That post didn't deserve to go to zero.
Oh, come on! It certainly has been working out find for you and me and thousands of others.
Communities and tribes are/will be an improvement. But stake will continue to have as much power over pending rewards as ever as it should because stake is ownership of the common reward pool. There will be more coins, which means there will be a larger number of pools and thus more a better distribution of ownership.

I already don't vote for them, but it doesn't matter much.
Interesting perspective Neal!
