It's because Steemit isn't working properly for them anymore; it also doesn't work as advertised anymore, which is a huge marketing problem.

It’s not working for most people. One could argue that it hasn’t worked for about 94% of all sign-ups. (Not an accurate number, since sign-ups have been artificially inflated, along with “active users.”) The people who remain are pretty much just here for the money...and how that money is being earned on all fronts is a great indication of the extremely poor health of the platform.

What people apparently fail to realize is that “investment” and having happy, engaged “investors” on Steem is what will draw happy, engaged, and good content creators. But the problem is - the people bitching about how investors are investing aren’t actually listening to or comprehending those investors and their actions.

Whose fault is that? The people buying the tokens and/or powering up and putting positive price pressure on STEEM? Or the ones whining about how they then use that influence in the flawed system? And why are these whiners not speaking out about the critically flawed system, instead of brown-nosing the dev team that has fucked it up and continues to do so?
