Nobody has ever tried to promote blurt in a serious way but me to my understanding with my hive cabal series and then redirection to Blurt, which garnered massive attention across all three platforms. I pulled 10's of thousand of dollars and multiple investors to blurt, then the momentum stalled. Sorry I can't work full time for a loss 15k.
Just make note of the system. This is not a traditional business, this is a split from a decentralized blockchain. Anyone, with the will and know how can take the bull by the horns and change things here for everyone. I'm just busy with my own highly successful project that have zero chance of getting derailed by creepers behind a keyboard that I have no clue about in advance. That's the problem with all these blockchains, any moron or worse can join the "team" and things are out of your control, and off in a direction of failure. Anyway, love your content. Keep up the great work.
Also, pointing fingers, playing victim, and complaining why others have not lifted us up instead taking maters in your own hands....is a very libtard stance in my humble opinion; especially since founders taking a controlling stake is the norm across most of the top 100 cryptos at the moment.
Imo, Blurt is still better than hive. I find unappealing now and almost a waste of time to even publish there. I still read a handful from a handful there from time to time.
I haven't forgotten your dedication to blurt either and what you have done to do that.
This platform still has many aspects to improve on and if they do, I do think that will increase the chances of serious growth, probably sooner than later.
I'm not a tech savvy individual with coding skills either nor have the initiative to do that, I have other incentives like spreading existing alternative ideas that on small scale, has proven to work for the future that could greatly benefit mankind without the need for rule by force.
Playing victim? Talking to me? Lol.
I don't know where I am playing victim, only stating facts and what I think could be done.
Personally, as I have said it before, the coin needs more distribution, more investors, more committed individuals with the skillset to create dapps for blurt. A video game on blurt would attract many I'm sure. Another UI provider and better and more powerful frontends like peakd. An easier to use interface for setting up vote trails by anyone for anyone they choose (better than delegations imo) and much more that I can't think of at this moment.
That controlling stake will eventually dwindle. And will spread out or concentrate in other hands. Curious to see how that will turn out.
More power to you. Creepers will creep and they will try. Prepare for the worst case scenario either way. And have fun doing it.
Cheers brother.
Thanks for the very well received message. I agree on all fronts.... but instead of following in the footsteps of the other platforms and shoot for games and frivolous entertainment; I believe ALL the top trending posts should ALL be alternative media type content. In today's world censorship-proof decentralized communication = $$$$. Blurt has the potential to go to the moon, if managed and marketed correctly.
How is what goes into trending calculated exactly? Does it vary on the different frontends?
Not sure exactly. Maybe @saboin can answer this for you.
