Things that can be Improved to Steemit....
From the eyes of a 12 year old boy
Although Steemit is an absolute incredible website, I still think there are some adjustments that could be made to the Steemit website (that I have picked from other social media sites) that would make Steemit much easier to use.
Adding Notifications - for example, there is a Steemian you are dying to see new content from but because you have been looking at another Steemian, you have missed some of their good quality work. If there was a notification system that wouldn't happen!
A recommended bar - although it is sometimes annoying, it does much more good than bad as sometimes when you are running out of posts to look at with that certain genre, you can often lose interest. Which could mean going onto another social media site and forgetting all about Steemit. However, with a recommended bar you might find someone you didn't know made that content.
Channel art - this is something that happens on YouTube and I think the space which is just blue could be covered in something that makes your profile unique to everyone else's.
Adding a most popular, oldest and newest list - this is one of the things that would be great because as your post gets older and new ones come in, the oldest entries sink into the massive abyss. When your someone who constantly posts on steemit, some of your quality posts are lost. So if there was a list ordering your posts, you could tell someone your most popular post, and your first one as well instead of having to scroll down the endless amount of posts.
A post list - on steemit I thought if you could arrange all your posts into different sections.
So if you had poems you could put that in one post list and if you had blogs you could put that in another post list.
Those were my suggestions! if you would like to see these things happen to steemit please resteem it because nothing is perfect... not even Steemit.
Hope you enjoyed

Wow, Matthew has a great head on his shoulders for a 12 year old!
Great ideas! I'd also say we should be able to click on a tag and press "new", "trending", "popular" etc without it exiting out of the tag.
There are definitely a lot of innovations bound to happen on this platform in the coming years. This is the future of social media, but it's still in beta after all. :)
Great post!
Thank you @joshsigurdson. Couldn't agree anymore with what you've said! Me and Matthew can't wait to see what the future has install for steemit, the community and the ideas that people will bring to the table!
Categorizing your own posts really makes sense, because just about everyone has multiple interests.
I also agree with your emphasis for Steemit to fight more for the user's attention. This is the real challenge that all social networks/web sites/apps are facing.
Thank you @gigafart. You've nailed it! I have no doubt that steemit along with its growing community will stand out from all the other social media sites! Have a great weekend :)
I will read this later again.
Great recommendations! Would love to see these pan out!
Some interesting ideas.
Good post. There's a third party app called eSteem that addresses some of your issues. It's still a little buggy, but the notifications are pretty key, and they do work (well, sometimes).
We need more young people to improve the interface! You are the future, so catering to your mindset is crucial for the next 5-10 years. Thanks for the suggestions, and keep writing!
