The biggest difference between Facebook and Steemit, in my opinion, is that Facebook is depressing whereas Steemit is not. On Facebook, one can not help but be affected by the many ugly and toxic comments left on political posts for example. So far (knock on wood), Steemit is appearing to build a more tolerant and respectful community of people while upholding certain standards--standards that are missing on Facebook--or Fakebook as I like to call it. Previous to joining Steemit, I had rarely come across articles online on anarchy for example because...well, Facebook curates our feed. Here, I have merely to click on Trending or New or Popular to see a selection of well written articles that are free to read without the annoyance factor of advertisements or rude comments from trolls.
