thats why I see that as an asset. Let's be real not everybody can be a blogger. But being able to have online social connetion, everybody can do and want to do. Steemit leadership should capitalize on this for this reason or some new blockchain will take over.

@deserttree, do you now think that the Steemit platform will change with future updates? Facebook is like fashion where it's never complete. It's always changing and growing. Even though Steemit is based on a similar platform to Reddit, is it not receiving as much community interaction as what you would on Reddit.
However I do agree that Steemit is still very undervalued, but struggling to register new accounts is the biggest issue. My wife has been waiting for 2 weeks now, just because she registered over the same wifi I use at home for my laptop... I want to have a more specialised account name as well, but alas, 2 weeks later, no welcome mail from Steemit yet...
Personally I think that Steemit is still very young and the current minimalistic design keeps it open for future developments. What do you think? @darnscotty
I know Steemit will keep changing, I would like to see changes to be faster and more oriented to increase the user base. We had a big momentum when price of Steem rose high and June was tremendous success in increase of user base.
However, now it has slowed down, because people are not really aware of blockchaing and when your front page says "Welcome to Blockchain" that drives people away. I have personally saw that when I was trying to recruit some friends.
I don't know anything about 2 weeks, most of my friends I preached to were able to sign up in a day or two. Hard fork 20 is addressing these issue in blockchain level. But I think Steemit as a company (not to be confused with Steem itself) should take rapid actions when moment present itself as it happened in June 2017.
I think after bitcoin wars settle down sometime in August, Steem will have another momentum, but if it is not capitalized in increasing the user base that won't mean much.
After all, once EOS is mature anybody will be create a competition to Steem, and if Steem is not ready something better will take over.
There are my few cents.
Can't wait for HF20 for the new users
