RE: What STEEM Really Needs Is A Dolphin-Booster Program As Evidenced By @fulltimegeek!!!
Great! So there's more to come, too! ;) LOL
I think this is what's going to hold Steemit back, and possibly STEEM too (depends on the apps built on top). It has to be ultra-simple to explain and understand. The more friction, the more people give up. Look at Twitter - even that's seen as too complicated for many people.
I fully agree, but I see a fundamental rift between developers and the rest. We don't even speak the same language with them.
I recently wrote a post about the unreadable bluepaper in which I describe this problem. For them issues normal users have are so far away, they don't understand that someone could have such problems.
My impression is that there is not even a problem awareness among the developers and witnesses and that will persist and probably kill Steemit while competition does it better. Unless, the back end of Steemit (witnesses, developers) can be professionalized quickly and bridge the gap.
