i have wondered a bit about the scalability of some of the things here. if steemit were to grow to hundreds of millions, some things would definitely need modification, at least. i would need a swarm of aggregation bots to find the things that interest me. i'd still miss important things. i feel that way already, about the whole internet. it's like an expanding fractal, where the microcosm becomes the macrocosm, or maybe it already was and i couldn't see it.
