Thanks @markgritter - this is helpful feedback.
We plan on addressing everything you mentioned here. I think in the immediate term, the low payments to committed users thing is the most pressing issue. Other apps on Steem like d.tube and dlive.io have large delegations from other users that allow them to reward their users greatly, but we do not unfortunately :/ I am trying hard to fix this. I believe it would solve a few issues, as it would also attract many more users that can further vote on content.
Would love to chat more about things some time! Sending you a Linkedin request if that's cool :)
