We have come a long way since 2016 and yet not a lot has changed since then. A limited reward pool and stake weighted method of distributing it hasn't quite resulted in mass exodus that was originally anticipated from other social media platforms or cryptocurrencies into Steem and it's dapps.
Mostly due to the tech not quite catching up to the original roadmap from Inc, but let's move away from this fact for once.
To be fair there weren't many dapps outside of Steemit.com in the first 2 years atleast. But we're here and new users are still signing up which is great. But the retention rate is bad and it's also hard to keep users using the platform over long periods of time.
I've seen many users with unrealistic expectations out of Steem over the past few years. I've seen some of my own expectations being met and others being proved unrealistic and yet I continue using this place in hopes that we can bring the necessary changes needed to scale to many millions of users who find this tech ultimately worthwhile.
Anyway, I want to know from you dear Steemian, what are your expectations out of Steem? What do you think it can do for you that brings you here everyday to use it.
If you like my work kindly resteem it to your friends. You may also continue reading my recent posts which might interest you:
