Very happy seeing the cooperative competition expressed by Minds.com and Ottman. We're all on the same team.
Steemit allows for capital buy in which is impotent to start using the platform on a more commercial basis. As long as they build all of that on top of the decentralized / free speech foundations I see big things for this place.
I've only been on Minds a few days, buy I'm really liking it as the more traditional social media environment. If they can integrate crowd sourced and rewarded file storage for the video platform, look out. MaidSAFE / Golem type projects may be a good fit.
