HF 20 was a little too centralized. There are 20 witness votes and more than 1 million accounts. If a platform is THAT centralized, Steemit Inc. has to do a better job at reassuring users that they aren't going to get "screwed". A lot of users got screwed during HF20. Perhaps things are better now. I don't know why they were so bad for a few days. The whole fiasco takes away confidence. If Ned wants to continue to live in the shadows, there need to be more and more qualified witnesses who "take a fall" when they screw up.

The downvoting is bad PR (Public Relations) so soon after the HF.
