No changes to the Steemit user interface for 6 months? With users crying out for changes all this time?
WTF?
I decided about a month ago, I was very disallusioned with STeemit.
I have been laying low and not posting in the last month. I actually decided to stop posting and just make new friends by commenting on other folks posts.
Not an easy thing to swallow, or DIGEST.
But after reading several weeks; and looking over the chatter, I can see there are many sides to this coin. (no pun)
We all want to see the fucking STEEM price go up. I guess we can all agree on that. Can we please all accept our inner greed enough to admit we are all self oriented as a matter of basic survival?
That said, I wonder at times if Steemit is simply the original “monster app" that got the STEEM ball rolling ?
With so many new STEEM powered or SMT powered apps being announced, I guess this is the real side of STEEM.
It's a blockchain.
It's a blockchain, not a social media app.
In fact, it's one of the most advanced and modern, dare I say, sophisticated tokens available, for many different reasons.
So we have to admit, anything that can be done to put this blockchain front and center, in this hyper-competitive market of blockchains, must be done now.
So kudos to Ned, and I have complete confidence in his ability to sniff this market at any given time and rally the various interests to do the most with what is at hand.
It will be interesting to see SMTs take flight...
I’m sure the first few projects will look GLORIOUS!
And then, reality will set in for a while. Thousands of SMT offers flood the market...
But I tell those that ask me, what do you expect of all this?
I assume, Wall Street has met its match.
And there will be a few blockchain frameworks that replace it with something new.
Meanwhile, Steemit is still the best place in the world to meet new friends, and find new opportunities.
So thanks Ned, Dan, and the Steemit community!
