More
Have you ever felt Steemit could be much more? Because I do. I'm a longtime Reddit user and came here thinking
"This is gonna be Reddit, but without #censorship"
"The comments are gonna be incredibly #funny"
"The #community will be engaged even more since money is at play"

Don't stare, that's not the point. It's just me thinking real hard.
Communities
Ok, this may be a major pain point. I think that until Steemit has real "subs" like Reddit, people will be lost. Especially since people probably came here in the first place thinking reddit-clone!!! (OK I have no source on this except me). Subs will play a huge part into #filtering posts. Tags won't work for that, Tags are one thing, subs are another. It provides moderation ( #leadership ) and generates communities ( #engagement ).
When vs How
This will happen, and the sooner it happens the better. I totally get the steem devs are working on the blockchain itself, but without also improving the front-end ( #steemit ), we might lose the #momentum. And like everything in life, the when is as important as the how.
SMT
How do you envision the future of Steem(it) my friends? Do you think SMT will fix all the problems at once?
