I never heard of that site, steemit was my first platform and blogging/sharing experience. I bet you are kicking yourself now for not starting sooner and getting better stake to influence the actions. I always wished I came across steemit before and get more say in shaping the platform but that was already long gone and hard to do with no stake. Kind of why, right now most laugh at weku because it's a bit of a mess but really that's like my second chance at building a good enough stake shape some things in the future. We have all seen what we didn't like about here and what could have been done differently for a better outcome but powerless over it. At the end of the day people tend to look up to those with stake and they set the trends.
