It does/doesn't. ;)
EOS may build a social platform. Dan keeps teasing about one, but it's obviously not launched yet.
U.Community is in alpha, as mentioned. And Trybe is gaining traction, with a new UI coming out next month.
So while EOSio as an organization doesn't have anything yet, there are other projects built on the blockchain. I wouldn't be surprised to see a sidechain come out eventually as well. It's quite the endeavor though.
I agree. The information is a bit scattered. It can be frustrating. And trying to keep up is very difficult, at least for me.
Steem has always been great because of its ingenuity and the community is great. But it took a couple of years before some real tools were built for folks to be able to interact. Even then, the code has discouraged a lot of developers because it's so hard to work with. Steemit never made that easy. That aspect has literally cost me thousands, personally. And they never really built much that went beyond their UI, at least not from a user perspective.
I'm heavily in STEEM. I want to see it thrive. And I'm glad to see some of the current innovations being built on it, even if I don't play games or gamble. Time will tell.
