In the time since I joined about six months ago Steem has gone down in value. Steeming for the joy of it has become my primary experience, in that the worth of posting has become less valued in dollars regardless of who upvotes my posts. In dollar value my account has declined while my posts have been rewarded more.

Now I am learning about SMTs and the implied top 20 manipulation required to introduce a hard fork. All of this makes it difficult to onboard people from f.b.

Still, I enjoy steemit more for many reasons.
