Doesn't the new system on Steem benefit those that power up? It seems like it incentivizes you to hold your SP or buy Steem, instead of powering down to sell. I only have 307SP, and I have been a lot more active and engaging lately. I have yet to run out of MANA.
I am still waiting for my WS confirmation, so, I cannot compare them for myself quite yet. I am on Smoke.io and Weku and those seem to be ok as far as engagement, but, I just got on those two as well.
I will probably always love Steemit because it was the first, even if it has these speed bumps every now and again. I mean, I won't throw my kids away because they frustrate me either.
Thanks for the analysis. Steem on!
