I'm sorry your expectations were not met. I'm sorry they weren't set properly to begin with.

Steemit is not Facebook. It uses blockchain technology so you actually own a part of something that will exist forever. You can not be censored here. As part of that ownership, there's also responsibility. With Facebook they gladly pay for all the servers and such to host your data so they can extract value from it for advertisers. Here, the costs for running the network are shared by the network. In this ecosystem, the amount of Steem Power you have determines how much of the shared collaborative commons you get to use. By that, it means you can't post a bunch of times in a row and use up more bandwidth and storage space than you fair share. This is classic skin-in-the-game type stuff to ensure some people don't monopolize available resources (the free rider problem).

It's all super complicate and difficult to figure out. It takes work and time. It's like figuring out the internet in the early 90's, and it's not fun if you're not already a technologist. I'm a technologist, and I still get frustrated with how complicated these systems are.

But it's worth it.

As an early adopter willing to take risks and put in effort to figure something out few other people on the planet can, you are also participating in the potential early adopter rewards. This place is different, and it does have problems. That said, comparing it to centralized systems is like comparing apples to oranges. For your own sanity, go ahead and stay away for now. When decentralized technologies become the norm and usability of blockchain-based systems improve, we'll be here for you.
