<center><h1> Many trending topics are addressing Steem issues</h1></center>

And I think there is nothing wrong with that. If you ask around, some people might think:

  *"well, its supposed to be a social platform and I would expect a rich and diverse offer of different topics on the front page".*

I really believe it is not something negative, it is even positive. Think of Steem as an *alive-entity* which is healing itself making use of its own resources.

<center><h1> What better place to talk and discuss about Steem than Steem?</h1></center> 

Sometimes we ask ourselves, do we really want to show upfront in the landing page so many issues? What repercusion will this have? Isnt it bad press?

One  thing I am sure. **The world will know Steem has currently some challenges to solve, but it will also know that the community is proactively working on them** and giving them the right visibility (many Steem problem-related posts are heavily voted for visibility).
<center><h1> Self-awareness</h1></center> 
Just like in persons,  introspection and awareness are key to keep healthy. I would encourage the community to keep openly and transparently discussing our issues and giving the right visibility through promotion those topics that are found to be more critical.
