I am new to Steemit. Here some thoughts I have after my first impression.
Languages
The first thing I noticed as a mainly german speaking person is how my language is treated as a tag. Really? Are you so US (english)focused? I think on an international decentralized medium that is about writing stories, the language selection should be handled separate as a filter. And it should be possible to set my preferred languages in my profile.Upvoting and quality of posts
After my first view I got the impression that Steemit is just about earning steem money. People post just anything and then upvote each other, regardless of the quality of the posts. A lot of the posts don't even contain original content, but stuff copied from somewhere else on the internet. In my opinion the actual voting systems does not achieve the goal of Steemit, rewarding people for good content.
