Steem sucks because one is not allowed to cross post articles. They want exclusive original content only. I tried to cross post an RoK article and got downvoted hard. No one is going to devote their life to a site so they can make .04 a post.
The RoK thing you posted - was that an article you wrote for RoK or something else on RoK?
I fail to understand how Steem is attractive. It might be attractive if I already have a blog on a subject that I was passionate about. Then I can just post content from that blog on Steem. (Unless their exclusivity clause prevents you from even posting your own ideas and words on your blog, which is beyond ridiculous).
Who is going sit down for an hour or two a day to write original content for a platform that pays them peanuts today but that might pay more than peanuts at some point in the future? (contingent, I would imagine, on gaining a large following on the platform).
Seems like a lot of work for very little payoff.
If I recall right, they pay you in crypto so your earnings could fluctuate significantly.
Steem might be useful if it does not pander to SJWs and it allows streaming. Then when youtube and facebook and twitter shut down Roosh, Molyneaux and other red pilled men (I assume it is only a matter of time), then they have a clear alternative.
