Steemd the backend of the blockchain was made opensource long ago.
https://steemit.com/steemit/@steemitblog/steemd-is-now-completely-free-to-use-with-an-mit-license

https://github.com/steemit/steem

Thanks! You are right, this license change was in April 2017, long before I wrote that answer. I had visited the code repository, the last time, somewhen in late 2016 or early 2017.

Considering golos is a steem clone and there is another as well that used steem code.

Looked at Golos briefly. It is Russian-only (?) and seems to have been started in 2016, before the Steem license change?

For those interested:

https://golos.io/
ANN thread
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/golos/ (Rank 500+)

If you remember the other Steem clone, I would be interested if you post it. The simple reason: A Steem with less whale power would be an interesting project, although I'm still not convinced of the concept of storing everything on the blockchain.

I also found this old Steemit article: A Comparison of Steem/Steemit Clones and Competitors and Why They Made Me Invest More Here. But none of them seems to be a real "clone".

Its not purely Russian people from other lang's can post as well they just don't tend to earn as much.

Yes, they had a direct deal with Steemit Inc.

Since the license is now open source that isn't necessary for future forks.

Here is an example of a Steemit Fork
https://github.com/Someguy123/understeem

Well, but that forks only the Steemit website, not the Steem cryptocurrency behind it. The latter would be, as far as I know, a license infringement because Steem is not open source (it's "source-available" or "shared source", but it forbids you to create a clone with a new genesis block).

I have an idea of a re-implementation of a similar (but a bit different) content monetization scheme, based on an already existing coin. But it will take some time Wink

I have a website which is another take on quora or stackoverflow which is basically explaining things with use of analogies. If someone has knowledge of steemit and would like to work with me to create a similar concept i am all ears

I guess no one yet had cloned steem ever since? I thought newbium was just one. Maybe you guys are requesting a clone to a wrong crowd, there are hardcore programmers can do this in less than a week. its the money talk that can make it work, how much would someone pay for steem.

it is based on Graphene, so the same DPoS consensus for the blockchain. I haven't looked in much more detail beyond that. I read they were offer rewards via voting, which IMO was one of the major blunders of Steem.

Ohh my freaking Goat! Really bad offense dude. This will really net you bamned. No question about that. You should've known better than to copy paste the posts of others.
I feel sad for you, but sad to say, you deserve it. People like you do not belong to this community. You are making this forum look bad.

I'm sorry i had to say all these things, i just couldn't stop myself. Specially when what you did is too obvious and has been done twice on the same thread .. tsk tsk..

I don't think that just cloning a coin is good idea. Simple clone would never be as popular as original design.
What you want to is introduce EEE doctrine. Which means - embrace, extend, and exterminate.
This is known strategy Microsoft uses as main way to conquer the market; they first copy existing idea, hone it to the perfection and then you can kill original idea and control and monopolize this idea.

Everyone should look up "Bazillion Beings" and check out STEEM/Steemit Bots, this is how Robots will earn everyone money in the Future. Stop worrying about robots taking your job.

https://steemit.com/bots/@personz/a-new-voter-bot-newer-smarter-freer
https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@steemitprime/steemit-bot-2017-increase-upvote-and-follower-100-working
https://steemit.com/steemit/@cerebralace/how-to-use-the-steemit-voting-bots
https://steemit.com/steemit/@hoschitrooper/bots-bots-and-bots
https://steemit.com/steem/@heimindanger/don-t-use-vote-selling-bots-use-promoted-instead-a-bot-that-upvotes-you-when-you-burn-money
https://steemit.com/guide/@bitcoinparadise/do-you-want-to-run-you-own-voting-bot

How about as we start getting the Steemit Clones and everything out, we make them more and more Bot Friendly. And we create threads like this, where we can all talk about creating Bots that will vote on each others posts. Maybe we can even create a Bot that reads a thread, and looks for usernames in the thread, then if you hook up your account to the Bot, it just votes on everyone in the Thread automatically for you. And does it for anyone who uses the Bot, so everyone is getting everyone's votes.

The op's idea is good. But this is better! I meam damn bruh! This should be how developers in the cryoto world think and should be the way to compete with other rivals! This will not only make their rivalry interesting and thrilling to watch, but also make their projects worth investing and actually doing something good to the crypto world.

Steem made several major errors in design, marketing, and launch/distribution. The original will not be the best.

I heard Dan Larimer is working on improving Graphene and launching a new thing. So Ark and Steem will be using an inferior technology.

Monero is not the original ring sig crypto but its overtaken whatever was the first one.

I'll forward your thoughts on Ark.io to the person I know who was thinking of buying it. Whether they pay any attention or not is up to them.

Also yesterday or the day before I sent you a PM you still haven't replied to you might not have seen it

@iamnotback I didnt know Ark.io was similar to steem? I read all their website recently (ARK's) and it just sounded like they where making another Etherum to me, but maybe I got it all wrong.

There is a Russian clone called Golos (which is licenced by steem). But yeah, most wannabe clones haven't launched yet, so at the moment they are just vaporware.

Most clones i believe are much better though and that is because most of those that developed it already have found flaws and solutions to the original one. Some of the products or coins with same concept are better too, example of this is zcash which has same feature with anon coins but they tend to be better.
