I love your question. Personally I think it is the best place to talk about your dreams and what you really care about. People in this community are very supportive. It is also the best place to learn to blog because you can easily test first what would resonate with your readers and if it brings in some money in return for your effort. It is also the best place to read up and learn about altcoin and the blockchain.
What I still miss is the opportunity to create groups or own channels within Steemit.
