I agree with this. And I do think that Steemit might face some difficult competition from Dan Larimer (co-founder of Steemit now working as CTO for EOS) who is creating what he's calling "Steemit 2.0" on the EOS platform.

So development on this platform might have higher stakes if people start populating that future product. I wish I could help but, alas, I'm no programmer.
