Hahaha! Yes, I do!
I think the key is sustainable onboarding.
I couldn't agree more. That's why initiatives (which I mentioned in my more waffly post) like Steem Terminal and @heyhaveyamet and @pifc are so important. I also touched on the issue of the complicated interface and the fact that @steempress and @steempeak have made such a huge difference. @share2steem when it functioned was also a potentially useful gateway tool, but too open to the potential for spam and abuse because posts could literally be "quick and dirty". I lamented its demise, but with hindsight, think it wasn't such a great loss to the platform.
It took me a while to get "into" the decentralised aspect of Steemit. I'm not sure I am, entirely, but I do like knowing that it is so catholic - in the broadest sense of the word.
It's great living somewhere where one can and does enjoy the space around one.
I can't believe I missed your blog. I'll have a read now.
