You know what? These are valuable criticisms that should be listened to. I'm resteeming and encourage other people to do so. Hopefully @sneak will take time to answer this.
I'm personally very excited about the arbitrary reward mechanism.
One point that I agree with you is that we should have more arbitrary variables that should be left to the devs of platforms to decide.
I don't know the feasibility of this but if we can leave those decisions to each individual projects that are being developped, we have less chance that someone will require their own blockchain to attain their objectives.
Thank you cryptoctopus.
Yes I think the blockchain should be as open as possible to different kind of projects that may arise.
Limiting the underlying blockchain just because Steemit do not see value on a certain kind of contents, seems wrong to me.
Thank you for ReSteeming @cryptoctopus....otherwise this post would have been missed.
