I think we would need better apps first from the developers. Many of the apps has just been out for 6 months and they are not super impressive but it's getting there. Also how a good community can still be a bit challenging to find. There clearly must be some more effective way to do it in the future but well they are working on it. But people can also learn to step out from their specific tribe and learn to consume something new. It can be a nice learning experience.

But also, looking back. Some of the issue here is even in your reply. I don't care about an upvote obviously, but when larger dolphins and whales choose to upvote their own comment on a reply rather than spread their own wealth and give a minnow that measly dollar, it furthers the gap between the so-called "upper" and "lower" class.
I just noticed that afterwards, but its small things like this from individual community members that hinder it more. If you want to upvote yourself go for it, maybe you just didn't think my comment was deserving of your upvote, but if the community doesn't change development means nothing.
If you upvote your own reply then that means you live in a scarcity mode already. So they don't make themselves richer. Will always live in scarcity. One thing is clear and that is nobody wants to give away value to a small account that doesn't seem to have potential. The value will be going to the people you can clearly see expand massive amounts of energy.
Maybe not new apps though, just better development of the ones we already have. Dtube is a constant frustration for me with its loading times and uploading errors. Steemit could also use more attention to detail and some spreading of the wealth by the devs. I definitely feel on the "tribe" mindset as well. I've found myself in the science tribe and notice some of the most hardworking users get very little recognition from the larger community for their efforts. Cheers to it getting better though, i'm sure the platform will only grow from here.
