So long the power distribution problem exists on Steemit, it's the sort of "Capitalist Robber Baron" way of "decentralized," which is to mean, the people with all the power act as if they're poor sheep and you better not allow a sheriff into town or they'd shoot the sheriff, and you too.
I think the biggest problem with Steemit is that it seems unwilling to learn. Facebook is constantly evolving. Not always for the better, but it is learning from its mistakes - again, sometimes to its betterment over us - but where is Steemit's learning, and especially its opportunity for free experience - learning from its predecessors' mistakes?
