RE: There is a better way to refer to this community than to call it "Steemit"

in #steem7 years ago

I think the whole confusion started with the founders why didn't they use two complete different names for the Blockchain and for there first social Media project. Now you have Steem-Blockchain and Steemit.com and yes many people are not so picky about the exact meaning of the two words. I guess it will stay like that as long the other sites like busy, dmania and dtube will become more popular.

Well, I think they used different enough names and separate websites - steem.io and steemit.com. I don't think it's a problem for interfaces to include steem in their names - they are steem interfaces after all.

I agree, the more popular other options become, the more people will become cognicent of the fact that any single website is not synonymous with the underlying blockchain that powers it and that stores all the content.
