Is Steem solely a social network?
Hi,
I've seen some days ago a discussion about Steem. Some people have been talking about what is really Steem. A social network or something more.
Some said that it should be a social network, others said it is more than that and it evolves.
Some complained about the low engagement, which I'm also guilty of and some others said that it is not only about that.
Some said it can be use as a base chain for many applications with potential besides the social network aspect of it.
The truth is, the more user there are, the less the engagement will be. This is due to the fact that most one will miss the ones whom he interacts often because of other people posting. If you would get only the ones who post from your near circle the new ones would not get any chance of being seen.
I think Steem is a lot more than a social network. It evolves. I see it as a multi use platform where so many applications can strive.
How do you see it?

I know you don't see it as primarily a social network as you ask questions at the end of many blog posts but never seek to answer any responses!

I fully agree and I'm guilty of this. I propose myself to do it every time, but slip into neglecting it.

Ahah - not that I'm stalking you or anything (and not that it really matters) but one comes to notice these things after a while, and I couldn't resist that particular comment with this post title!
It's quite an odd way of communicating tbh - in public on ledger and not in real time.
Thanks for the reply!

I should thank you for the time and the reminder. It helps not to lose ground and to be reminded of oneself. Will strive to improve.

I think it’s a mix of all the above. When Steem hit its peak I noticed it was hard to keep up with EVERYONE I talked to on here

Of course, something like a promoted social blogging network.

Yeah it can be lots of things, but by that same accord it can be nothing.
We seem to be confused, so I am not sure how anyone else would see it.
