Well said @imlikett & @aggroed I support what you do here on Steemit, I think it's genuine and a very positive contribution overall which is why you have a witness vote from me. However reading this post to me seems to mask the glaring holes the Steemit platform is faced with primarily no viable network effect strategy with no new user on-boarding improvements since I joined almost 1 year ago [in fact its worse], and 950,000 inactive accounts and no increase in net active users in the last 3 months.

Once we start seeing steady improvements in user retention, then its time to party! There is lots to celebrate, and I believe the future is bright for STEEM and Steemit. But its very early, would rather focus on utility and Steemits product market fit which I don't believe they have found yet although SMT's might change that.
