I think many of us early adopters are feeling similarly right now. The platform is moving in the direction that it must and the community feature might be the thing that allows Steemit to keep its more intimate feel during mass adoption.

Steemit (meet ups and SteemFests in particular) have been the cement that have created many lifelong bonds. I wouldn't trade the memories I've made over these past few years for anything in the world.

Thank you, @skapaneas!
