I use busy.org most of the time over steemit. It has way more features and is more user friendly. Steemit looks outdated and doesn't look as clean as busy.
I was thinking about making a browser addon that notifies you when you are leaving the site in order to combat phishing attempts. It could just say "You are being redirected to [scam URL].com. Click OK or Cancel." I think that could help too but I am not a programmer so I don't know how to make it lol.
