"Don't stare" Sorry not sorry.
I am optimist so I hope for the best. Sure steemit has its share of problems. But as far as I see it benefits are far greater than these problems. I want all the benefits...
Steemit is my first international experience. I have never been outside of Lithuania. In this place for the first time I am connecting with foreigners. I am having a lot of fun. So I hope that sooner or later most of the steemians will also learn to have some fun. that they will care less about upvotes and more about people and experiences. I know, I know. I am a naive dreamer and that is not likely to ever change.
Just like you, I do hope it changes though.
