What do you do for fun on Steem?
What do you do for fun on Steem?
You know, I've been thinking. What do you all do for fun on Steem these days? The doom and gloom predicted by the passing of HF21/22 have yet to come to pass. About three months ago, I asked what kept people around. That poll was more vague and open as I wasn't sure what I should be looking for. This time, I want to be more specific.
Speaking of doom and gloom, I haven't even updated my Journey into the Apocalypse series.
(Boy, I do miss writing about the Hawaiian Farmer as a recurring character. I need to get back on the drawing writing board.)
A lot of people rage quit Steem over the EIP, the introduction of SPS, etc. Some even blame the downvoting. There exist some people who left the network over those things. But, let's be honest about the real reason why most people left: the price.
As I have mentioned in previous posts, people need reasons to be here. While rewards are one of the incentives, they are most likely the weakest. When the price dropped, they all disappeared. I still hold the opinion that the rewards should have been the icing on the cake.
When it comes to what's keeping people around, Splinterlands should be a great example. Splinterlands is a great case for successful blockchain-based business and dapp. I can't say the same for others even though I do enjoy some of them.
With the roll out of the community features, I hope things will finally look up. This, of course, will also be the precursor to the herald of SMTs. Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things. The crypto market is irrational, but if Steem does survive, it will stand the trails stronger. Not to mention, it could finally have features that match what you'd expect on a social platform. Although those features are already years late.
What do I do for fun on Steem these days? Oh not much. I blog some stuff here. Downvote some things there. Listen to some radio shows here. Banter with some other Steemians there. I'm a simple man when it comes to entertainment. Some people read books, and I read most of the things I upvote. Of those things, they came from the tribes as they are the best content filter/discovery we have so far.
So, tell me, what do you do for fun on Steem these days?
What is keeping you entertained in this prophesied ghost town?
There is no absurd answer (for the most part). Poll will be open for a week and multiple choices are welcome.
- Splinterlands
- Other games (i.e. Next Colony)
- Using dapps (dPoll, SteemHunt, Actifit etc.)
- Farming STEEM
- Smoking that "hopeium"
- Off-chain games on Discord (i.e. Crypto Fantasy League)
- Witnessing the inevitable destruction of Steem
- Plotting to be the next influencer on Steem
- Building the next awesome dapp, community, tool, etc. on Steem
- Other (please specify)

virtual community/environment which helps to learn English.
there're some useful ideas appearing on Steem from time to time.
How far along are you with that project?
"virtual community/environment which helps to learn English."
was clarifications/details regarding
"Other (please specify)"
I meant that Steem-based apps like Steemit
serve as a great
virtual community/environment which helps to learn English.
that's what attracts me to Steemit-like apps.
as for
"Building the next awesome dapp, community, tool, etc. on Steem"
I do have some basic ideas/dream/thoughts about some communities
but don't have enough resources and appropriate knowledge yet.

Are you talking about yourself or other people?
I meant other people, but truthfully it makes me cry on the inside. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I'm wondering what algorithm he uses, I still get them every post though I no longer delegate to SBI, and they vary in weight. I'm sure my SBI stake isn't as wavering ;)
The downvotes seem inconsequential, but that's just me anyhow.

Blogging like crazy for more sp. The lower the price the more sp we all earn.
Engaging with those that are here. Helping people who need help if I can do it. I love the place no matter what, and every day here is fun for me.
I ignore the "bad" as much as possible. No one is raining on my parade.
You, sir, have reached Nirvana.

I just finished writing a movie review. I'm slowly trying to finish a blog on sarcoidosis. @trumpman posted a blog about his dog. @tristancarax is running a peculiar (wonderful) contest that requires people to write a story in 31 sentences. There is so much more. That's why I'm here. There's no place else on the Internet where so many creative activities are going on all at the same time. The people (the ones I meet) are wonderful. I'm having fun. The price of Steem? I feel really bad for people who have invested a lot, and for people who need it. Frankly, this week (if I can find an ATM terminal), I plan to invest another hundred or two. More fun, and I'll be able to upvote with greater impact. Long answer, isn't it.
Acceptable answer.
I am always here for the people. As the numbers have dwindled a bit I feel a connection even to some people who I used to not get along with.
I also use it to get my ideas together.
And part of me is still pushing to own a full bitcoin. It’s a bit hard to imagine right now with steem but i haven’t lost hope completely.
And sometimes it’s fun to take a shit on the blockchain too!
I think I can relate to that.

My "art" gets more reciprocation here on Steem.
I want to reward fans of #tetrahedroseph and #steelparade.
I LOVE pennies!!!
What about your cold brew?
Funny you should ask!
Those are my new labels. Only 25 special edition with hints of chocolate, almond, and cat juice. 🤣 jk
Serious about new labels. Thanks for asking.
