Sounds like a great idea to build off of the experience and interactions from Steem - incorporate the Human factor. I would concur with @stellabelle's comments. Especially in moving the concept to more of a social-media platform and having that social-media expert aligned and integrated. Take for instance chat - I think it should be on the list of integrated features. Hopping off to Discord moves the conversation to Discord - it should stay on the platform. I've started a few sites/communities and made a conscious effort to refrain from sparking up a Discord server. Also, embrace the different form factors that bring different perspectives, long form, Appics images and its Instagram like format... the list goes on.
Sounds like it could be fun. Keep us all posted. I love Steem and will be around on it for as long as it runs. I also like to see innovation and wonder what the "next" Steem will look like.
yes agreed. In 2016 many of us asked for the chat function. And the developers didn't get it. It was a huge mistake not to have private messaging, and a huge mistake not to build good mobile apps.
