I totally agree with you.
We need to keep it simple and only this way we can attract people.

To be honest I do not see any difference between Steemit and Hive. To me, the hive is not a better place. A few are in charge, you are blacklisted if you post somewhere else, for every word they do not agree with.
I am realistic. No matter what group, the club you join someone has to be in charge. Extra certs may look ideal and filled with energy but introverts, thinkers are needed to figure out what works best.

A dictator isn't per we bad. Look at our PM who points at Hungary and other countries but took all rights away. Does it make him a better man because he claims it's in name of the democracy? What democracy?

Steemit has potential and they are on the right way. Some things have to change to make it easier. Hopefully they still aim on quality too because I still did not find a platform who does so.

I don't think people should join because they can earn. They should join because they like to write and promote themselves. Quality should be rewarded in some way. Not the tweets and copy-paste tests.

A build in spam detector would be a great help too.

I will still talk to people about Steemit, the opportunities given and show how it works.

It would be good if newbies could post. Enough SP for 1-2 posts per 24 hours and 10 comments will do.
