From my little experience so far on steemit: below are few of my findings
-encourages originality
-Not a platform for the indolent ones
-Rewards the diligent ones
-Well secured
-Ease of operation
-Encourages socialization.

Steemit it has gone a long way to be dumped. It is easier to develop and improve on an existing foundation than starting a new one.
With the advent of decentralized systems like @steemgigs, busy.org (which i got to know about today) i beleive steemit is going to reach its peak. These are challenging times, it only gets better if we collectively put in our best to see that steemit rises again rather than leaving.
They work more on this beautiful platform rather let it decay.i see potential immeasurable growth potential in steemit.
Yesterday i got to also know that steemit was 2yrs old, i had to use the opportunity to test the new busy.org by making a quick happy birthday text.
It was really wonderful.

My worry in steemit is the way peoplw now abuse the voting bot...they no longer post quality content because they beleive they can always make the money. I agree to the fact that steemit lack a bit of governance......
