dude im totally going to follow you. i like that you actually have a voice and speak your mind. i like that man. you should do the same lol. anyway.... agreed it could make sense that they no longer care and they are collecting steem or looking into other areas of expansion. i guess its disappointing bc its naive to me. I feel like isnt the point to have users? not users that understand tech or dev or design or your computers... there are TONS of authors out there that dont understand tech and seeing an interface where even I rage quit lol is like damn this needs work. I agree the bad ui breeds ppl like me and busy.org or manifest something better, thats true. and perhaps this is my carbon footprint on the platform to build my own. which im doing. but i guess i expected a response or something from the higher steemit powers in hopes to build something or assist them. no worries. im having a blast meeting people, discussions, and creating it so for me it creates purpose and like you said user retention in the power of 1 me lol

One thing to keep in mind here is we are not talking about a large user base at the moment - it isn't like Steem is pissing away the good will of millions of users or anything. You will hear lots of numbers bandied about RE how many users are signing up and how many users there are, but the truth is there are less than 50,000 active users. Way less when you account for bots and alt accounts. And of those users, nothing would make Steemit, Inc. happier than if a large chunk of them quit Steem and never came back. If the tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist anarcho-capitalist early adopters went away, @sneak, @ned, et al, would be dancing in the streets. @sneak has said as much publicly (as stating his own personal opinion - but you would have to be incredibly naive to think this "personal opinion" was not held by the rest of the upper management at Stinc).
Again I don't really think they are intentionally crippling Steemit.com but if the truth is that steemit.com is the very bottom of the priority list, that isn't much different in practice. I for one am looking forward to more updates from you, your front end looks awesome and I am hoping you and your team can bring it to reality! BTW shoot me a DM on Discord would love to chat about something related with you. @gnashster#6522. Cheers
