You're absolutely right! That's a huge opportunity that should've been taken advantage of - it's still possible - because many popular platforms/creators are being deplatform and many people feeling Facebook.

2 years ago when YouTube started demonetizing creators left and right, I wrote a post about it because I thought it was a golden opportunity, but hey! There's still time as you say.

Well said @mediahousenet, steemit was created as a revolutionary concept, too bad it didn't evolve much beyond that but you can't change the past and I hope the potential is fulfilled in the future. :)
