WOW .. Very strong words shows much anger and disgust towards the platform that once was content king money maker, its becoming a memory to most. 
The ones that stick around and support it are the ones who made ties to the steemit mafia... 

I hear you @stellabelle and I understand you as most all users here.. Steemit is becoming what it wasn't meant to be, you now see government like groups trying to rule steemit as if it was a piece of land...  setting boundaries  setting rules "you must post this and earn this".. "We don't like this so you don't get paid".. what happened to decentralized platform? 

It was an amazing ride for most we complain but we stick around.. trying to remember and recapture the good old days of steemit which was 3 months ago... 

Lets see what happens to  you steemit...
