What brought you to Steem?
I believe it was mentioned to me in an Ethereum mining discord, but I don't remember 100%.
What was your first impression?
Holy crap there is a lot of spam.
How do you feel about the current state of Steem?
I believe the last few hard forks helped a lot with the spam and abuse, but there is still a lot of it. Doing something about it has created endless drama and frustration.
I think we are at a critical point, do or die.
How often do you use Steem applications/websites/etc?
Many times a day.
What is your favorite Steem Application and why?
beta.steemit.com, as I spend a lot of time using the UI and I am excited about the release of Communities. Steempeak is my favorite UI though.
What’s your favorite thing about Steem?
The community reminds me of Cheers, where everyone knows your name.
What’s your least favorite thing about Steem?
The immaturity, entitlement, and lack of passion.
How difficult/easy would you say it is to use Steem?
I think it is far more difficult than it should be.
Would you recommend Steem to family/friends/coworkers? If no why not?
To some yes, and I have.
What do you wish you could do with Steem that you can’t currently?
Mention it to someone and have them understand it within 5 minutes.
What excites you most about Steem?
The future
What worries you most about Steem?
Lack of engagement and userbase.
