Did you know that another steem fork is now available as a new social network?

It is called BLURT

To be honest I love the name, it has a cool sound and it sounds very funny when I try to say it with my Greek accent! lol I would love to hear it from a German person, hehe

Let's cut to the chase. Is Blurt any good?

One word. "UNFINISHED"

I am not sure I understand the reason why it was released to the public with so many unfinished and not well made features. It looks just like steemit.com but it has many broken links and even if it is easy for me to use, I am not sure what a new user will think for it.

Official Links

In gitlab https://gitlab.com/blurt/blurt The social platform https://blurt.world/ In Twitter https://twitter.com/BlurtOfficial


Looks

It resembles a lot like steemit.com, so if you think of using it, you will feel right at home.

A few remarks

  • The wallet section does not work.
  • In the settings section, we only have the option to power up 100% or decline payout (not 50%-50% option)
  • I see no special movement, I created an introduce post but noone commented so far...
  • I see no movement or official announcement in twitter
  • I dont understand what they have to do with the new /zapata/ coming (another fork!!)
  • All steem users exist but it is like started from zero / no posting history / no friends / reputation starts at 25
  • You can sign in with your steem keys
  • There is supposed to be an airdrop, but we have to wait until the wallet functions

Does blurt have any value?

I do not know yet, I am not persuaded but maybe I will be posting there too - depending on who joins!
