I've just been thinking how Steemit is kinda similar to Netflix's Black Mirror season 3 episode 1 (Nosedive) social network 😂.

Nosedive introduces us to a world where a social network rules everyone's lives. People live for their social reputation, fishing for ratings (upvotes 😂) on everything they post on the social network and also on every social interaction have with strangers, friends or coworkers. Augmented reality lets you see everyone else's reputation live - and judge their worth from it.
This reputation is measured on a scale 0-5. The Upper 4's, are society's elite - they get all the perks, everyone looks up to them and try to impress them to get upvoted back. That's because an upvote from them has a much higher effect on your reputation than one from someone of average stake (Steemit right? 😂).
The story follows Lacie a woman who goes into great lengths to boost her social media score.
Well, my advice to new Steemeans like me is Don't be Lacie.
