I know the feeling, I get so triggered with that. People don't understand that STEEM is not Steemit... One is a blockchain, the other is a platform to access the information on the blockchain.
But I guess that is what we get when we make the entrance barrier to STEEM as easy as it is... All people without blockchain knowledge can join. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I Don't know, especially since this is a proof-of-stake crypto, which means that some of the people with Stake/power on the blockchain don't have any knowledge and shouldn't be making decisions, they should proxy their witness votes.
I'm one of these people with no prior blockchain knowledge and still don't know all the ins and outs of it. But I know one thing: Steemit may have started it, giving us the tools we use - but Steem is what we make of it, warts and all.
I had no prior blockchain knowledge too and still don't know all the ins and outs of it even though I spend pretty much day in and day out researching blockchain tech and other types of tech... The more I know the more I realize I know nothing. Isn't this a saying?
