I'll start by saying I'm not a technical person so forgive my mistakes, you know this is one of the biggest things affecting steem, we have programers, developers dev guys, YouTube gurus who are obviously here on steem but you find out that these people hardly take time to give out real technical explanations to what steem really is, that's why I begin to think sometimes that having centralised figures for this sole purpose isn't really a bad idea.
Truth is I'd wanna give this guy a benefit of a doubt, because him saying steem won't work out because Dan Larimer left is a total proof of how ignorant he is of how the steem system works in general and this can all boil down on the fact that these people don't have facts on steem, so they rather play sentimentality in order to boost the perfectness of their own platform, it's really terrible, this guys's speech is a call to action
