That may well be. I don't like that so many of the 'dapps' don't even make it clear that they run on Steem. We want users to be aware of the greater ecosystem. I only had peripheral usage of DLive, so missed out on seeing what the dedicated community was like. Still, those who mainly used Steemit will probably not follow them to Lino, so they lost a lot of potential users.

A lot of Steemit users don't really know/care about witnesses, but that's another issue.
