Dear @twinner,
thanks for your honesty. You brought the issues to the point and in a clarity rarely seen recently, where instead just unreflected hurra and euphoria is communicated.
@ned , if I could go there I would personally have asked you tons haha. I do hope my team leaders from #teammalaysia would have gotten the opportunity to meet you.
He may be shying a bit in asking a question in front of the crowd :D
But yeah he has got some valid points and that is what I sometimes think about. @ned Steemit need to have a complaint or an idea's center to check for the ideas from the users. As you know users experience things that some developers don't know.
Distribute the powers to the lower level and see what you get out of it.
Thanks
Bur for me, one of the most important things (in my opinion) were adressed and well presented by the dev team: scalability. If the software running the nodes and interfacing with the webservices do not improve, we will have a real problem. So in this steemfest:
Technical solutions to the scalability problems were presented.
The SMTs were presented as a way to incentivice existing and new users to create great products. A new SMT user is automaticaly a steem user. Growth is value. Value attract investors.
Most part of the SteemFest attendies are net-earners, they invested their time and their content and have now either a valuable SteemPower stake or a well-filled bank account.
This is currently an issue. The economics of Steem currently are not sustainable. Maybe we are in a startup phase? Not exactly the same thing but new businesses often are run at a loss because there is projections that they will become profitable.
The take away for me was the community that is gathering around this project. I am encouraged after Steemfest that key member of the community are going to mobilise around this issue and tackle the problems but obviously if we continue as we are and the system continues to see a net outflow of money then we are in trouble.
Great to meet you and thanks for sharing your experience.
Sehr schön das du uns mit der Kamera mitgenommen und die Tage so gut dokumentiert hast, richtig klasse. So haben die Daheimgebliebenen auch einen Eindruck davon.
Ich habe den Eindruck, dass du nicht wirklich zufrieden bist, finds aber gut das du darüber sprichst und die Kritikpunkte auch öffentlich teilst, so kann sich wenigstens etwas verändern.
Danke Dir, vor allem hätte ich jetzt Null-Bock, nochmal Posts über Tag 1, 2 oder 3 zu machen. Bin echt froh, dass ich das untertags gepostet habe. Ich bin nicht unzufrieden, das SteemFest und die Tage waren wunderbar, da konnte man die Probleme auf der Blockchain ganz gut verdrängen :-)
Hehe immerhin, tolle Menschen sind für mich das, wovon Steemit lebt.
Ich habe hier Leute kennen gelernt die für mein Privatleben wichtig geworden sind, was ein Geschenk.
Es wär doch erstaunlich, hätte Steemit keine Probleme, ich hoffe einfach, es wird Lösungen geben und solange geniesse ich die Community hier.
thanks for the honest reporting on the event... i also thing the coomunity part is much stronger than the investment part... at least looking at other alt coins and their performance.
Thanks for this valuable and realistic analysis. I think we need more of these contributions that include also criticism. I was jealous looking at the great posts from #Steemfest and I think @roelandp has again created MAGIC with the event. Agree with you @twinner on the investor view and outlook. Glad to hear you trust the Devs - that means I will trust them too now. I will remain to be the guy powering up nearly everything in hope the price is mooning in the future.
This comment is not meant to attack anyone posting their love of steemit at all - positivity is needed, but sense for reality is also key to survive.
And a key to trust! Positivity and critism do not exclude each other... !
When reading this from twinner, I recieve information from a trustworty observer... instead of one-sided unrealistic dreambakers...
Dear @twinner,
thanks for your honesty. You brought the issues to the point and in a clarity rarely seen recently, where instead just unreflected hurra and euphoria is communicated.
good..
Read and watch this for positive economics/value flow with SMTs: https://steemit.com/steem/@ned/explainer-value-flows-on-steem-with-smts-video and SMT Whitepaper goes into depth on this too: https://SMT.steem.io
I’m surprised you did not ask me a single question the entire event...
No vote for twinners post @ned? I am wondering - would deserve it imho, because the critic is constructive.
Thank you sir for preparation steemfest2

@ned I am convinced SMT will be a great success! No doubt whatsoever!
These two reasons are actually good reasons.

See u soon mate. It was pleasure.
wow! I love that picture of you guys climbing the stairs to 'A night of Steem' .. epic! Thank you, for the thank youssss!

herzlichen Dank für diesen kritischen Beitrag. Jedes System, dass keine konstruktive Kritik verträgt, ist in sich instabil. Herzlichen Dank
Danke
First of all thanks for sharing steemfest2 travel experience. Excellellent photography. Glad to hear your honest thoughts on SteemFest2.
thanks for the honest reporting on the event... i also thing the coomunity part is much stronger than the investment part... at least looking at other alt coins and their performance.
The people feel, that steem(it) is unfair, so they leave. And investors are seeing this too, so they stay out, and price is going down.
