I agree with almost all the points you've pointed out. But I was just talking about Steemit- the app, and not the Steem blockchain.
I get the differences between Facebook and Steemit. Possibly it could be more comparable to WordPress.
Thanks for taking the time in visiting one of my posts. It's been a while since I had interacted in one of my own.
