Like I posted in the referenced thread, I'm going to re-evaluate why I'm here.

Probably by reducing my frequency of posting original content. I thought I'd be noticed by the upper tiers for my efforts. 

I was wrong.

Appreciate the posts, it has enlightened me to why Steemit will fail.

Better learn it now than stick around for a year and get a reality check later. Assuming that the platform is still active, of course.

Actually, you are wrong and I will tell you why:

Most of what you see today is because we had fights and disagreements and discussions. Not all, but a lot. When i started on here, there was no mute button.
A stalker was on here, and we fought to get a mute button. This is how it works on this kind of platform. In early days, big discussions by users would result in changes to the code, as long as the community was all in consensus, for the most part. It's up to us to change things, and it is possible.....as long as decent people stay here. When the creators of culture leave, then it becomes more like a wasteland....I still think the experiment can work...as long as we try to make it better.

I'm not a whale, I'm collateral damage.

So while everyone decides whether or not to be greedy or create, I'll just scale back.

Its okay, the bots will keep the whales company.

Unless... the power base of those only interested in short-term profit and voting-for-reward becomes large enough to be able to squash any grass-roots movement to change things. The rule-set implemented in Steemit at the moment seems to enhance concentration of wealth and therefore power with a few, and not necessarily a few who have the long-term interests of Steemit in mind.

But I still hope you're right.

we can still change the way things are, nothing is set in stone except the past. Steemit has made much more radical changes than what snowflake proposed to fix the situation

I'll be watching for productive changes.

Until then, I'm scaling back.
