I believe in STEEM but my trust in Steemit is over for the biggest part. This has mainly to do with the top not believing in their own product and ripping it ASAP so they get back what they invested.
It proves they do not have a long term vision. The one each Gardner and starter of an own business has.
They are completely different from Amazon where service to the customer is the highest priority.
Steemit Inc is more about making it attractive for people to join, empty promises and run out with their pockets filled. So I can imagine why people say it is a scam and there are so many account unused.
I hope after the next fork it won't be worse and the ghost town people already talk about turns out to be untrue. For now I do believe the other steem sites make a better chance to grow.
