I think Steemit.com is the best way to access the Steem blockchain right now. I am using Steemit daily and find that it currently has far more user interactions then its sister interfaces. Posts gets more exposure and the blockchain allows a pretty good sync between the interfaces.

On top of all this I think Steemit being the oldest is also more well known to the outside world. Since Upvotes and commenting is done internally we forget that although people not on steem blockchain may not be able to interact but they are still able to view the posts. I want to be a part of this place that allows the most exposure to the outside.

For videos I have used DTube a couple of times. I have thought of using Dlive but am having troubles with (long buffering time and I am not able to upload videos)
