RE: EOS vs Steem - My thoughts on double Witnessing
Thanks for clarifying. Yeah, that conversation was a bit frustrating for me also, as I mentioned, and maybe it wasn't the best way for him to describe things. It was not only a long time ago (last year), but it was an open, informal public conversation we had with many people around us, not a PR moment in front of the camera or anything like that.
I agree with you that Steemit, inc through @steemitblog is 10x better than it used to be concerning communication with the community. I really, really appreciate that.
"inefficiency, they are learning, its OK"
To me, if this goes on forever, it's incompetence and not okay. If they aren't fixing what is most important they are failing.
On the other hand:
"they know, its not important to them, not right now"
This may actually demonstrate expertise, experience, and professionalism. They may not be incompetent, but instead working on the most important things, even if they aren't sexy. To me, that's a good thing, I just wish they would do it all a little faster (as do many). That, also, is a good thing because it means I'm an engaged user in their product. I love it. I want it to get even better.
In any case Luke, I give you major props for putting yourself out there to have this conversation with the little guys. As emotionally charged as the conversation got, specially with a special someone, you chose to see it through.
I learned a lot from the conversations that sprouted out of this, specially when Paula and Asher joined. I needed that perspective.
Yeah, they provided some great value to all of it.
I have these conversations often, but I guess I should go out of my way to continue having them more openly (this may be one of the few times I used a root post for them). If people have concerns, please let them know I'm always available, and I don't mind controversy, as long as people are respectful. I have better things to do than feed trolls, and unfortunately that happens here too from time to time. :)
