I loved how you gave examples of real friendships and projects on Steem. I often just share my Steem posts on other social media and have created some Steem accounts for my friends who are participating in contests here. I just gave your post 50 claps on Medium if this helps to get more visibility. It's just a little sad that a lot of people associate Steemit with Steem whereas so much more exciting DApps are on the Steem blockchain. Maybe the name might have been different from the start?
