Despite the price action today I am kind of impressed by Steem the last days/weeks. (and to be clear not just Steem took a dive today)
Tribes brought some new live into it.
HF 21 is around the corner and on my beloved sports tribe you can already try it out with 50/50 author and curator rewards and a free downvote a day.
The community is way smaller than on Steemit which I feel makes more people feel more involved and actually use at least their free downvote if not more to fight abuse.,
In general if I check Steemit, I open Steem Engine right away as well to check for prices and new airdrops.
Also earning a bit extra for your posts is pretty nice.
I am very deep in the red with Steem but I am not this concerned at the moment but there are moments I curse this whole chain to hell just for praising it to the high heavens moments later.
It is exciting to diversify your "Steem Engine portfolio" even when I sometimes have a hard making sense of a token and why it should exist and anyone would pay for it...but I am also not the sharpest knive in the kitchen so what do I know?
