Thanks for the link, I thought his account disappeared or something lol. Then I thought it must be those whales! True, whales did fund themselves but without new users investing they would be holding worthless tokens, so they rely on new users to invest in the platform, just as any other user does. 

I understand your point and thanks for clarifying. I guess we have just different opinions about cross platform content. I always think youtube will always be number 1 for several reasons so I will always hold that opinion. 

I guess the main take away is add something extra to steemit. As in added explanation or even interaction. The youtuber I came for replies to steemit comments much more than youtube and with much more detailed responses. Link dumping looks unprofessional and crud anyway so I am surprised he is making money from it but I think it is mainly is from bots. As for the bitching post I guess a lot of people just agreed with him.
