Of course there is and there will be competition. Everything which attracts a number of possible customers / investors / … has competitors and it is good like this. Without competition there is no incentive to do better and to improve something. already mentioned some competitors.
If you want to cover the topic of competition here, you'd need to define which sector you mean. Steemit as a blockchain has many functionalities and they will increase with SMTs. Several DApps are build on Steemit, all covering different sectors and all have competitors.
E.g. Steepshot is a DApp build to share your images. Kind of instagram. There is already sola.ai as competitor and with APPICS there will also be one on the Steemit blockchain. There is a big competition.
Also DTube and Dlive who are competitors for themselves, both on the Steemit blockchain (well,. at least a bit as videos and images are not stored on Steemit).
But there are also DApps with nearly no competitor from the cryptocurrency scene at the moment, at least I don't know competitors for Fundition or Utopian.
