RE: What does the Founder of a non-Steem crypto app think of Steem?
I haven't used steemit for anything except it's wallet since the first week I signed up...

Just curious, what apps did you use instead of Steemit? :-) And did you know about them before you signed up?
I knew nothing about blockchain, crypto, or what a dapp was etc. when I signed up.
I believe Sida offered partiko as an alternative on my introduction post and after about a week of suffering with steemit I gave it a try and never looked back.
I'm a mobile only user both iOS and droid and my UX especially using droid on steemit takes me back to dial up days of old. IPad isn't much better so out of necessity I had to find another front end.
It's amazing that steemians generally push back and tell me to do this or do that and that I should essentially show steemit more respect lol.
I'll then explain how the half dozen friends and family I tried to get onboard gave up after steemit wouldn't even load for them to start the waiting game.
Even when I'm forced to go to steemit to power up this often has glitches and takes multiple attempts..Everything else on my devices works famously it's just steemit.
I'm aware of all the other front ends but I'm cozy with @partiko and have no reason to venture out, though I did try steev but it was also a bit wonky and has a super stretched thin staff.
I heard about steem from word of mouth here in Malaysia and then discovered it was a mostly isolated and self contained universe of information and tech I was oblivious to before.
I appreciate and applaud your efforts to export to steem to the masses. I feel I pretty well represent a normal non tech 2019 target audience that came merely for the opportunity to post whatever and not feel restricted. Zero motivation to earn money.
My experience here has absolutely changed my perception to a long term big picture that will require us all to take baby steps together..
If anyone takes anything from my perspective I'd hope it's that most people want to use their mobile device most often. Sure, coders, devs, bloggers etc have computers and first world isp but the rest of us potential consumers or whatever we will be called do not.

That is how I use to think until @broncnutz made me more aware. I'm feeling myself become more committed as I participate and see the integrity of the site.
