I think that steemit should implement things that has been proven to work. You don't have to reinvent the wheel when it comes to social networks, just take something that has already proven to work and copy it.
Steemit is already superior to other social networks because of its voting algorithm that battles spam and trolls in the best way, so what is needed to be done is just making Steemit look like Reddit, if that happens, I know for me that I will use Steemit as the only front-page of the Internet.
Feel free to comment on whether you agree with me or not.
