Some of us long term believers will stay if Steem goes to the moon or if it crashes and burns. Whatever happens we will deal with it, but leaving the platform while it is still work in progress is not very smart thing to do IMO.
So true. Silly to leave Steemit when it is in it's dips to go post the same content for free on Facebook and Instagram and etc. And to go more to your point, this place still looks like a less than web 1.0 type of web site, but it's usability and great userbase leaves so much growth because of the fact this is still a big work in progress. Congrats on your two years! Coming up on the two year mark soon as well, it doesn't even seem like that long.
It is not that long, but all the dips and tips were insane. From 4$ to 10 cents, then from 10 cents to 8$ back to 1$ :D Some of us who were here for all that time should get a medal for extremely extremely hard balls of steel.
