Thanks for the pep talk! While I've never given up on Steemit, I've become really frustrated with it. My reaction has been to sit on the sidelines and wait it out. I feel like there's way too much fighting and drama going on and not enough energy going towards making things more usable and attractive to use. When I recommend this platform to others they always complain that the website design is bad, all the trending posts are insider talk, and they don't understand how to format posts.

I'm not a developer so I can't fix any of those things, though. Guess I need to reconsider my focus.
