This could perhaps be a sign of ongoing growing pains. I imagine the Steemit leadership and support staff are trying to tackle unforeseen issues and are encountering a number of road bumps along the way. I think that if the leadership at Steemit would communicate openly, promptly, and consistently about the challenges the platform faces and how it plans to address them, this will help to reduce the levels frustration people are currently experiencing and help to build long-term confidence. Company heads could also appeal directly to community member to solicit ideas on how address some of the more pressing problems concerning UI and UX technicalities. I'm sure the community can offer up some very novel and effective solutions. As a result, community members will develop an even greater sense of engagement because they will have the opportunity to see the seeds of their contributions come to fruition and they will have greater confidence in the platform as a whole.

This is a very important topic to have for discussion. Thanks very much for the post.
