Why:
I've seen SteepShot around and I'm not a huge fan of it. Its a great initiative and good idea, but should never be adopted by the mass until it has their own blockchain. SteepShot is an App that directly posts on Steemit, so you'll have a single image + tags published as a blog post whenever you upload an image with SteepShot, the only con that makes me not using it.
How it currently works is not contributing or bringing value to the steem blockchain in the long term, (SEO wise f.e.), id even say it is bad for steem until it has a filtered option on your timeline. Just imagine if 20% of the current accounts on Steemit would use SteepShot on a daily base, 3 times a day: your feed would look like a mess and you start to unfollow people, a scenario that's bad for content creators which will create an option/reason to make them leave. The only people that would remain in your following, are the ones using only SteepShot. But right now: fun for the lazy blogger on steem and great testcase.
This is why I'm waiting for SMTs, UI/UX updates from @ned, and @Appics to launch. Hopefully it will be an Instagram 4.0 and Appics has their own blockchain and UI.
The mass doesn't read much lately. It's storytelling in GIFs, pictures or video's that triggers the mass. Don't you agree SteemIt would be better if there are more people sharing more stories? There are so many accounts just dropping lines for dropping lines. Imo that is a total waste of my time. Cut the BS and share something that triggers the interest w/o boring the crap out of me.
I felt this way too about all the new dapps for a bit, but then i realized that soon there will be other ways to share our steem based content in a way that we'll have more control over (finally.network is one thats just starting out and looks promising) and steemit will be simply a record of all your transactions on the blockchain in chrono order, which is what it is. It's already kind of a lame Blog site in terms of layout as far as that goes since you can't customize anything. I like some Dapps more than others but to not use any of them right now during the wild west opportunity phase just because I don't like how they look in my steemit feed would be missing out on opportunities imho.
In short: nope
