I enjoy using steemit and minds.com very much, but there is definitely a difference between these sites and facebook. I am in more of an echo chamber on these sites as most of the people with whom I am connected think exactly the way that I do. For this reason, the opportunity to have any sort of influence or plant the seed of an idea with someone who has never considered voluntaryism is not there. With few exceptions, I do not personally know any of the people with whom I am connected on these sites, so the function that it serves of keeping me connected with people that I know personally does not take place on these sites either. I also have groups that I administer on facebook.

I agree that facebook is becoming less and less attractive and as they "improve" the way that they do things they are actually ruining it. For now, though, I will try to keep a presence on all three platforms.
