  • Fast, lightweight environment variable to object mapping
    Try the Hive version. I wish people would stop linking to steemit.com. That site is defunct. - Source: Reddit / 26 days ago
  • Ask HN: Why no crypto token tied to content sharing in true P2P fashion?
    Sounds somewhat similar to “steemit” [0] crypto. However, the main difference is you gain coins from users voting (aka liking) your content and not p2p sharing aspect [1]. You have a cool idea so I’m curious myself what others will mention in this discussion. [0] https://steemit.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago
  • Why Bother With Web3?
    Some business models like UniSwap collect fees as part of their operations. Other models make money when users invest in the platform, like Steemit. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago
  • I Just Realized Brave Has a Built In Crypto Wallet
    A lot of the new decentralized apps are introducing their own tipping systems, and even their own cryptocurrencies for achieving this. But the issue with this is the difficulty of use: in order to "tip" on Steemit, for example, you'll need to create an account, link your wallet and transfer funds. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago
  • Web3 for complete newbies
    Steemit: It is a blockchain-based blogging and social media platform that rewards its users with cryptocurrency for publishing and curating content on the platform. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago
  • Elon Musk giving 'serious thought' to build a new social media platform
    Personally my bet is whatever Facebook killer does emerge is going to be built on Revolution Populi. As we lean into the age of DLT/blockchains, I just can't imagine a new social network emerging at this point that's another centralized service. It will be built leveraging blockchain, and it will attempt to define socialcapitalism. Kind of like Steemit, only targeting Facebook's audience instead of Reddit's. If... - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • PNXBET IS LOOKING FOR FREELANCER TO PROMOTE THEIR ONLINE CASINO
    You need to create an original article about PNXBET or what is PNXBET must be 500 word minimum and also with PNXBET images and should be publicly published to medium.com reddit or steemit.com. All content must be original and submitted the same day of posting. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • A platform that rewards creative writing
    Have a look at https://steemit.com/ Most probably there are moreproject like this in the crypto space...? - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Distinctions between Web 2 and Web 3
    Example of web 3 platforms are Steemit, Diaspora, Augur, Opensea, Everledger among many others while examples of Web 2 platforms are Facebook, Twitter, Binance, Upwork. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
  • I made a Proof-of-Concept for a completely uncensorable and decentralized Reddit Clone with all messages saved on the Algorand blockchain - what do you guys think?
    User adoption seems to be a huge hurdle for alternate platforms. Both Hive and SteemIt utilize blockchain, and are decentralized (well, Hive is at least, Steem not so much), but neither really has a strong following relative to other social media sites. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Is Reddit going all in on Web3?
    The karma farming point reminds me of Steemit: https://steemit.com/ I visited this a couple of years ago to see what all the fuss was about, and what I saw were many people from mostly developing countries posting very low quality comments and content, all in the hope that it would bring them money. Once you change incentives like that, you don't need to worry about posting quality content, you're only focused on... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
  • The Occult significance of Dec. 25 - Saturnalia - known in antiquity as a Time of Child Sacrifice
    Also, the link you provided is bullshit-- Moloch and Melech are related words in hebrew, but not at all the same like "steemit.com" is alleging. Just because you read something, badly written and unresearched, doesn't make it true. There is no proof the Bohemian Grove group are anything other than weird rich people-- and there is absolutely no evidence they are raping and murdering children there. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • The SuperStonk youtube channel has been taken down. We are appealing. Please feel free to share download links if you have them here!
    Hive.blog (Hive chain.) Ecency.com (Hive chain.) Peakd.com (Hive chain.) Steemit.com (Steem chain, decentralization is debatable due to Justin Sun takeover.) Mastodon.social (Decentralized, but not blockchain based.) Lemmy.ml (Doesn't seem to be blockchain based, but still decentralized.). - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • We need to lock the float before Reddit goes public.
    In honor of whale teeth, ecency.com. For a different look, hive.blog or peakd.com. If not as focused on pure decentralization and prioritizing more traffic, steemit.com. Another alternate, lemmy.ml. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Reddit confidentially files to go public after explosive growth fueled by meme stock chatter
    Steem is a blockchain based alternative to reddit that I’ve followed for quite some time. So far it hasn’t really achieved a critical mass of users/posters necessary to become worthwhile but maybe if enough redditors migrate en mass that could change: https://steemit.com/. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • A newbie needs suggestions. Send help.
    Looking back to my few years in crypto world, all I knew was Coinmarketcap, coinsph and steemit.com. I never knew about fauceting, airdrop and trading. Although I was kind of doing some trades back then using blocktrades and coinsph. It was just that. But now, when I entered to real trading, I was lost! And I must admit, I need help! That being said, I would like to ask everyone for suggestions and comments about... - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Access Steemit Account
    As long as you have your private active key, or private owner key, you can log in directly through steemit.com. Unselect 'use keychain' and it gives the option to use 'password or wif". Input your private active key into the password section and you should be good. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Building a Reddit-like website with a real cash reward
    I would suggest looking at what Like Steemit, Publish0x, r/CryptoCurrency, and PeakD have been doing for the last few years. You don't want to do something in a paradigm that is already being abandoned or replaced by a new one. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Building a Reddit-like website with a real cash reward
    Like Steemit and Publish0x or users will have to spend their cash? - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • How would you expect Dogecoin to be integrated into a web3 notebook / personal wiki?
    You mean like https://steemit.com/ and https://hive.blog/ ? - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Why is there no websites similar to reddit?
    Like peaked, steemit, and other alternatives? - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
