Most of the major social networks weren't build in less than a year. In that sense Steem is no different. When I came on Steemit there wasn't a personal feed. There was almost 50% less features. Yet I stayed on and I didn't regret it.

A lot of people who didn't stayed have regret it.

I think Steem will become even more difficult to get and I feel the future of social network will be based on Steem or technologies based on the same principals. I don't see how it could be otherwise. And Steem has a very good head start and people should try to make the best out of it, just like with everything in life. Nothing is promised here.

But maybe if we could all go back to when youtube started we would all try our shot at being professional youtubers because the competition was a lot less back then and Steem might give this new opportunity. People shouldn't think it will get easier to be noticed on Steem it will most probably get more difficult and Steem is probably going to get more addictive, popular and well thought out.
