I may have inadvertently muddied the waters. I didn't mean to say Steemit will replace Facebook in functionality. More that it is the future when it comes to content and sharing. There's so much on Facebook that I really don't need to know, or even want to know. I'm with you in that STeemit is just a seedling right now, and can easily wither, but it shows great promise. The faults you mention are there, certainly, but as this evolves, we may find that there's self-correcting going on. The beauty of a system like this one is that it has some structure, but not too much of it. Some of its evolution will be user-driven, and at that point it will depend on the quality of the users, the early adopters being a key part so long as they have some sort of common vision. It can still turn stillborn with ease, but like I said, it does show promise... Thanks for the feedback!
