Thanks for comparing the various social media platforms available today and their followers, The ball charts makes amply clear that the steemit team has an uphill task and some real hard work in store if they really are eyeing a pie of the global social media space. I personally think that steemit has all the ingredients to make it big and the technical team should wake up and bring out the necessary technical advancement in the steemit platform to keep pace with other channels or to make a cut above them.
