Right on. I've been a pretty strong advocate of the platform since it first came out. I saw it as an awesome way to make some money doing things I already do (namely browse and post on Reddit all day). I got some Steem, even if not a ton of money. As the ability to make money seemed to get more and more concentrated, I started to shift towards more community engagement/involvement. I've come to realize we're missing a very basic mechanic of content discovery. When you sign in you're met with a list of everything that gets submitted to the site with no way to aggregate a feed of the kind of content you're interested in. The lack of ability to subscribe to tags/topics you're interested in makes finding things you (and your readers) are interested in a lot more difficult than it should. At this point its almost up to luck for a new user to find your content. It also discourages me from spending a lot of time browsing the site because I have to wade through the whole feed to find content I'm interested in. Sure, I can just go look at my feed, but that's by author, not topic. If someone in my feed writes something I'm not interested in it "clogs" my feed and if a new user writes something I'd read, and I'm not following them, I need to hope I come across it.

I think Steemit has a whole lot of potential, but I feel this content discovery mechanism will just become more and more important as people sign up and make posts.
