These growth metrics are very nice to see. One thing I didn't realize when I first learned about Steem and created an account was the potential for many apps to be built alongside or onto the platform (DTube for example). Seeing these new features develop has enhanced my view of Steem.
I'm excited to be here in the early days and it brings to mind when I began using Mozilla Firefox at version 0.9. At that time Internet Explorer was still dominant (and terrible). It's gratifying to look back at that since Firefox has become a popular browser. I would imagine many of us will be able to look back in several years with good feelings about being involved in the early days of Steem and it's related projects.
One concern I have for the future is the diversity of languages shown when browsing. The fact that Steem is growing worldwide is fantastic but the user experience seems diminished when scrolling through Trending items shows various headlines in non-native languages. When viewing the Trending, New and Hot feeds wouldn't it be better for English readers to see only English posts, Korean readers to see only Korean posts and so on (unless specifically choosing to do otherwise)? Am I missing something?
Your concern regarding languages is valid and I believe that it will be resolved once Communities are rolled out with the next hard fork.
Excellent. I'll look forward to seeing how that looks.
