That is currently impossible to do on steemit !!!
Why? Because UX is ages behind FB (or othe platforms) for example...
Maybe eventually that is the major problem we have... It's difficult for the average Joe to feel comfortable like on other social media platforms!
PS And in my humble opinion that is why bitshares exchange is still not successful . Very bad UX compared with centralized exchanges!
