I am hoping too that people will wake up to steem soon.

I do agree with what you have put forward, but it is important to remember, publishers such as steemit.com can choose not to display your content as a private company.

Steem is the platform (implemented on a blockchain), but steemit is a rendering tool (essentially a browser) for viewing material on that platform. Whether they choose to display it or not does not change the fact that the material is still available to another rendering tool. Facebook data is only accessible through Facebook apps/website.

I agree with your statement, just expanding on it, highlighting the inherent benefits of the steem platform :)

"Facebook data is only accessible through Facebook apps/website"
so true. the steem blockchain has so many advantages over web2 and there are more benefits than just this. however, this is one of the benefits I spoke about myself on the recording I did last week for an upcoming online summit I am presenting at. we just need to get people to see the light :-)

Yes, the interfaces on Steem can act as publishers as they choose, which gives Steem the flexibility in the same way the internet gives the potential to Facebook to exist in whatever form it takes.

I am hoping that soon people will wake up to Steem.

Me too. What did you think of @aggroed’s presentation on the future of the Steem Engine DEX?
I was excited about the Steem-Dollar pairing making it easy to transfer money in and out of Steem and his ideas about trading anything on the DEX.

Hoping that the interface improvements are significant, as currently it is unwieldy.

@aggroed showed a demo view of the becoming DEX - candlesticks are coming!

Hopefully they integrate better ways to manage so many tokens as every day there is another one added to the list
