Why? It would mean something better showed up and took it's place. Can't you imagine improvements on steemit.com? So why wouldn't you want those improvements?

Yalls.org (which to me looks like a copy of Charles X. Ryan's Yours.org)@davebrewer because I like Steemit. Yes, I can imagine improvements to Steemit. Btw, new Steemit-like sites are popping up. Most recently

Steemit isn't a big deal and never will be. It's just a hodgepodge of content - basically a blogging platform - where you can only make money on that content for 7 days. No big influencers are going to be interested in that at all.

But I don't think Steemit was ever meant to be a big deal - it was created as an experiment to showcase how something could be built on STEEM.

Better platforms will be built on STEEM and replace Steemit, and that's a good thing. I'm looking forward to what will come. I don't really care about Steemit anymore.

And yes, it has a lot of network problems, in addition to all the other problems - but those are things to be learned from so the same mistakes aren't made by future developers.

STEEM itself is a success, and Steemit was a great experiment - the first of many to come.
