Greetings @sndbox! Do you think Steemit has what it takes to be one of the top 10 global social media platforms?
We do! Are you willing to help us do what it takes to fix steemits vulnerabilities so we can bring this platform to the mainstream?
I represent an media alliance with over 10 million followers. We see that steemit needs a few small, but very important changes to make it to the next level.
Please share your solutions with us! And help us attract the attention of steem developers. Share your wisdom and thoughts with us at

Hi, you have written on @eric-boucher post... Thanks for doing so!
To answer your questions, yes I do believe that Steemit.com has what it takes to become one of the top 10 global social media platform.
First of all, which one offers financial reward for blogging, trading information or posting advertisement or entertainment? This alone, with the help of the P2P blockchain system it is built on and the Graphene architecture, not much comes closer to it.
Conviviality is coming along slowly but surely. If we were to accelerate the rate at which people sign in, we'd be having a lot more trouble right now. By keeping the faucet open and slowly increasing, we allow for development to occur in proper time. Though the space isn't yet on conviviality levels seen on such sites as Facebook or the such, it is noticeably growing in ease. We need more of this so every single person coming on from the street without any knowledge about some of the technocratic vocabulary found here.
On that specific topic, if there were more people working on a hastier acquisition of decent people to our platform, we would gain in quality content without the hassles of having people simply coming onto the platform to troll around or spam their way around. This would by the same token increase our quality as a whole.
There is one matter that is touchy and would help us all: A powerful method of limitation for the dispersion of abusive content. Building up a mechanism that would measure the dispersion around a person who abuses others. This would allow for a group of moderator to allow for the flagging of an account, instead of the flagging of an article. Thus, this mechanism would reduce the power that this person has to harass others, even if this person has a very powerful amount of Steem Power and, often by the same token, a high reputation and power to eradicate the presence of multiple minnows or dolphins, even the ones who legitimately post quality non-abusive intelligent content... It would be very powerful for us all to find ourselves in a virtual environment where
bullies can't last.
To add up to this, a few little video explaining in a live situation the processes necessary to make every steps of the way, one step at a time, What button to push, what they mean and what they entail. We already have a table of content that is readily available for the newcomers to tackle in a reading form but, nowadays, we would all gain by having this process played on a video beside the main Steemit screen to deal with things in situ, right there and then. It would automatically make this process swift, user friendly and everyone would gain in strategies and value gathering more and more Steem on the way.
This last explanatory part would include definition of terms while exposing them for what they do or can do in the video as well thus clarifying the understanding of the concepts which make this platform so powerful and inherently filled with monumental potential.
So, to end this diatribe, I want to thank you for this great opportunity to share with you on a subject that has been close to my heart for almost a year and a half already.
All for one and one for all! Namaste :)
