I also would like to respond to your comment regarding the "blog factor," and how it is in large part a likely contributor to the platform's level of "authenticity." So, I am correct in thinking that there really is no way to "hide" posts; or, in the least, even really have much of an influence whatever over who sees your posts, right? I was thinking about this earlier while entering a contest on steemit. The subject matter was a bit personal, and I wasn't sure if I necessarily wanted to broadcast all this information to the whole of steemit and any subsequent viewers (this brings up a whole other topic of how I wish I would have began my "journey into steemit" from a more anonymous position to begin with--if not because in the very least, it would afford me more options later on how to administer that). But I figured I didn't really have a choice, do I? To that point, I am curious: cn someone answer? Who can see one's posts (including who will be able to see them in the future; for how long?); how is this regulated if so desired by either poster or viewer (follower)? I imagine there are probably some nifty steem apps that can do some of these things, now that I think of it, but I'm not sure. Anyone? Bueller?
