hi
i will keep this short so i dont end up ranting.
i am working on a subreddit for free/libre games reddit.com/r/gpg4gpg
General Public Games For General Public Gamers (out by friday)
and i would like to use steemit has a platform to try and raise funds for libre games developers.
here is a demonstration i have posted on steemit (i have posted using the spam tag so it does not go on main page)
https://steemit.com/spam/@grumpymutt/colobot
Right now on /r/gpg4gpg i have linked free games from http://fossgames.com
http://fossgames.com/colobot-free-real-t...t-to-live/
i really like the format of fossgames, most the info i need for a game is in onepage.
and am hoping game developers can post their games on steemit in a similar format.
so people looking for free/libre games can end up on a clean page, with the info/links they need,
and game developers can get some funding from fans upvoting.
Was hoping someone from the colobot community could make a post on steemit so i can link it to /r/gpg4gpg.
This could be a good experiment for developers and fans for free software.
thanks for taking the time to read this.
more info on steemit links below

EDIT: update 10/07/16
hey just a quick update, turns out steemit is legit, it payed out.
converting steem dollars to bitcoin was easy thanks to https://blocktrades.us/
but steemit pays out its rewards half steem dollars and half steem power.
it take 104 weeks to power down steem power.
so posting for someone else's behalf and transferring the reward is not so straight forward.
unless you you have enough steem dollars to just double the amount.
i made a small donation to the colobot bitcoin address from the steemit reward,
has kind of proof the platform works and has a thanks.
i hope the developers take a look at steemit.
Anyway i wont bring up steemit again.
i came on here to rant about steemit and forgot to thank you all for making a really good game.
thanks
