What Are The Positives and Negatives About Steemit?

For this week we have chosen to ask a rather challenging question in hope that the community will develop a healthy discussion.

Steemit as of now is a platform where people can write posts and earn rewards. It has been in beta for over a year now and it seems that users have developed some concerns in regards to scalability, user interface and rewards.

We would like to hear your opinion about some issues, any issues that you might be of your concern for that matter. What are the positives about Steemit from your point of view? What are the negatives and how they can be improved? What do you like the most about the platform and what is the one thing you could leave out?

The winner of our second post is Hive account@guttormf, for his strong engagement and thoughtful comments. He will receive 25% of the $32.82 we received as authors, which is $6.84. We would also like to thank Hive account@oldman28, Hive account@ogochukwu, Hive account@mattclarke, Hive account@geneticmemory, Hive account@lisamodular, and Hive account@motley, and all other commenters who contributed to the debate.
