Nice point @snapperlize. Innovation of steem can mean changing its interface to be like FB. Imagine how much FB rake in daily and imagi e also if it were rewarding users for their posts. Steemit may not overtake FB now but will do eventually. Yahoo was once the topmost in the email world but other email providers has overtaken it.
I agree with you, emjoe. But what matters to most people, is the here and now, and unfortunately Steemit isn't there yet. It will come, and it will be good. It would be nice if people on FB can be rewarded for their posts, yes, and it is fantastic to learn about other countries and its people, (something FB can't give you), on this platform. It is slowly gaining traction. I, for one, love everything about Japan and now I learn a lot about Japan, by reading the blogs and looking at the photos. Both platforms work, for various reasons, if you know what to except of it. For the time being, anyway, as you say. One thing that is necessary and enables one to survive, is adaption to change.
I believe in, so hope for the best thanks :)
