At least I got minnowbooster to get their communication better. It used to be this:
We currently refuse to make business with you! We'll stop refunding in 9 attempts
And not it's like this:
You have been blacklisted due to violation of our terms of service! If you believe this was done in error, please contact us on discord: https://discord.gg/9HX2MVA. We'll stop refunding in 6 attempts.
But they have a business to run. Stinc is focused on SMTs. They are not setting up incentives right. Even OpenLedger DEX was sick of the dev team always messing with the wallet API giving them lots of extra work. The most active response I've seen from was sneak and boy it was terrible. He's practically bernie sanders lite. Sneak is half-way on board with MSM narratives. If other devs are like him, God help the social aspects of STEEM.
Ned doesn't seem like a bad guy. There are many things I like about him. But he's just too focused on building a "Platform" he's lost the sight of what the hell that platform is supposed to do. But I still don't think STEEM would be anywhere near as bad as ARN:

OMG, that guys voice. He has the perfect voice for commercials like that video.
It's not a coin I am interested in. Wish I was. I live right on a private airstrip, and jelly on the guys with their planes in the hangars alla time.
Edit: as to Stinc. I am not so sure they are missing their mark. I suspect they are aiming at a different mark than I think they should be, but I'm looking long term. If they're not, they're hitting the bullseye.
Their incentives hit profit from the pool dead center.
