Good, that is the system working as intended.
I'm not so sure if that's a good thing considering my - and many other's - level of discontent.
I'm not saying I'm happy about discontent, but frankly a degree of discontent is inevitable when things generally aren't going all that well for the platform as a whole. In an ideal world, everything about Steem would have been done perfectly from the start and it be well on its way to taking over the world by now. We don't live in that world. Beyond that, it becomes a series of tradeoffs. If you act decisively, then people who want a more conservative and methodical approach will be pissed off, and vice versa. But as I said, you get to express your views through voting and have some influence along with others who are like minded to potentially make a change. I still don't think that will please everyone, but it's how things are supposed to work.
I didn't say you were happy about the discontent, but it does look like you're throwing your hands up and levelling platitudes at genuine critiques of the system and proposed solutions. I have voted and I find those in control unworthy of their position and I think the proposed solutions and the methods by which they were conceived to be half-baked and shoddy.
I'm not really sure what you expect. Do you really think that people who have put various forms of effort into Steem for 3+ years, people with million of dollars (in some cases perhaps tens of millions), and a community of probably tens of thousands of regular users and a larger number of occasional users are suddenly going to change their whole approach because @distantsignal has shown up and has 'better' ideas how it should all be done?
Your ideas and input are absolutely valid as well as your votes, and I'm sure they will be considered in the mix along with many, many other ideas and views on the best approaches to use.
I expect better.
