You can read my post regarding switching from Reddit: https://steemit.com/steem/@glib/take-the-rid-of-reddit-challenge-with-me
I wouldn't say Bitcoin and Steemit are "two peas in a pod" at all. All they really share is the fact they are crypto-currencies and each use a blockchain. That definition would make all cryptos "peas in a pod". I think there probably are some more people learning about Bitcoin since they have to sell steem to get bitcoin so that they can do anything with that "money". Once there is a direct steem <-> fiat pipeline they won't really have much to do with each other. Also, the two have rather different use cases right now. I'm rooting for both, but I have much more long term faith in bitcoin.
