If you follow the /r/wikileaks 'meta' closely, you'll see that a subset of users and mods (especially /u/kybarnet) are constantly posting about decentralization, ethereum and other blockchain solutions. So they're certainly aware.
The question I asked myself is, "What does it take to get a fat lazy redditor off their fat ass someone to spend 3 minutes making a new phone verified steemit account?"
I decided the best way for me would be to try and post high quality content and goad users into making accounts so that they can argue with me and each other in the comments section.
Then after arguing with me hopefully they'll learn about what distinguishes Steemit from centralized competitors.
I've gotta say, I'm very happy with writing content on steem. The editor is a lot better than Reddit's. Also draft saving is awesome.
I do wish Steemit had the "Big Editor" button that Reddit Enhancement Suite has.
