That post is fine but i have some disadvantages and just a bit point of view . At first we are decentralized community that steemit company and freelancers are working on it . Huge investors are looking for free of threats platform whey they can earn money . All in all we have to take care for our main representatives which is steemit company , or other network of developers who are obligated to develop steem blockchain .
Information which says that steemit company layoff big part of their team
is not a good advertisement for any investment here . Steemit company is obligated to take care for our posts and they have to pay for it . When we take some costs for ourselves we will help them a lot . But how we can do it ? I think that the platform is insolvent , the sytuation is no clear and investors won't come . The best example is ads in their front end . They don't have any ideas to improve their position .
My ideas to change it :

• Let steemit allow to get donated from us . That is the eaziest way .
• One harder is to release their own products for us users . But all in all what it schould be ? I think that it could be licention for using for example javascripts in article by adding a new file , templates or sth else . to improve
  visuality of posts .
• The last my idea is ... let steemit company leave take care for their front end and try to decrese their upkeep as low as it is posible .

Thanks for reading it and I m so sorry for my poor vocabulary and gramathic .
