@I AM ERROR ok but see the history of youtube and twitch is they started with 0 zeros

2018-06-16 23:37:53 UTC  

and it would have to function as flawlessly as YT right out of the gate

2018-06-16 23:38:00 UTC  

twitch wasnt twitch it was justin.tv

2018-06-16 23:38:03 UTC  

people dunno history

2018-06-16 23:38:05 UTC  

they forget easy

2018-06-16 23:38:06 UTC  

I know history

2018-06-16 23:38:13 UTC  

who was it who tried to set up a union?

2018-06-16 23:38:14 UTC  

but you're not competing with YT on day 1

2018-06-16 23:38:17 UTC  

you're competing with YT on day today

2018-06-16 23:38:24 UTC  

yeah, they started at 0... everyone starting now is starting at -100

2018-06-16 23:38:30 UTC  

the systems are not the same one is based upon debt and the other isnt

2018-06-16 23:38:38 UTC  

steem has inflation @ 10%

2018-06-16 23:38:42 UTC  

way different

2018-06-16 23:38:46 UTC  

you couldn't build a model t today and expect everyone to pick that over the cheapest car

2018-06-16 23:39:00 UTC  

out there which I think is a mitsubishi

2018-06-16 23:39:34 UTC  

f**king facebook failed at actually competing with youtube...

2018-06-16 23:39:43 UTC  

yup

2018-06-16 23:39:50 UTC  

it's interesting tim thinks it's bullshit. it's kewl. but steem isn't simple as it looks. if you look at the code it's pretty brilliant. you can implent steem blockchain into any wordpress today. cant do that with bitcoin

2018-06-16 23:39:52 UTC  

and amazon prime is not competing verywell with netflix

2018-06-16 23:40:00 UTC  

plus steem is immuteable

2018-06-16 23:40:02 UTC  

Anyone getting the greay shirt? 😛

2018-06-16 23:40:07 UTC  

tim pool wants to delete his tweet he can

2018-06-16 23:41:02 UTC  

also tim launching a merch store without beanies is heresy

2018-06-16 23:41:17 UTC  

(yes I understand that' its diffucult) just saying 😄

2018-06-16 23:41:19 UTC  

twitter... why axactly is it filled with "have you seen this? did you miss that?" posts now? it's annoying AF.

2018-06-16 23:41:20 UTC  

you cant delete shit on steem blockchain

2018-06-16 23:41:33 UTC  

it's there till end of time.. unlike fb twitter, and centralized, aka, corrupt media

2018-06-16 23:41:51 UTC  

as journalist that is powerful tool

2018-06-16 23:41:58 UTC  

forget money or followers that is superficial today

2018-06-16 23:43:35 UTC  

if you want to interview someone in venezuela who survives of steemit lmk tim i'm sure they would want to tell their story even if just over discords

2018-06-16 23:47:29 UTC  

this was an interesting crticial look at steem, goes over a lot of its past problems and shadiness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HseuaDMmGo

2018-06-16 23:49:01 UTC  

tldr it has a lot of problems but crypto advocates like it because it's one of the few working real-world usages of blockchain technology

2018-06-16 23:49:19 UTC  

in the public

2018-06-16 23:49:53 UTC  

@angeryer nothing is perfect but the network isn't shady. You could have talked to the witnesses at the witness forum this morning.

2018-06-16 23:50:07 UTC  

Steemit / steem has cons for sure

2018-06-16 23:50:38 UTC  

For example delegated proof of stake means voting is weighted upon those with higher usd value. this causes bid bots to be economical. and thus promotional upvotes are sold

2018-06-16 23:50:42 UTC  

he goes over some issues at launch that made it seem shady, but they have fixed a lot of the past problems

2018-06-16 23:50:53 UTC  

but YOutube also sells for the feed dont they?

2018-06-16 23:50:57 UTC  

that's what I meant, not implying it's currently shady

2018-06-16 23:50:59 UTC  

we can see with transparency who bought who sold

2018-06-16 23:51:13 UTC  

there is shady elements like the bots i mentioned
