I don't think facebook would work if Mark Zuckerberg decided to turn things around and make it like steemit. It's usually disastrous when you want to introduce a new upgrade to lots of people who have been using it for a long time. So many people won't love the idea while some will. Steemit has something better... They started from scratch with people signing up because they love the idea. Lucky for the steemit team, they are the first to roll out something like this. There's always an edge a pioneer has over other newbies.
To me, it's as simple as that
