I really support everything what you said! But we need to remember that Steemit is still beta and further developments will (hopefully) come in due time.

That's kind of the problem. We keep expecting that things will come "in due time." That really doesn't cut it, considering the amount of money available and the amount of time it takes for relatively minor tweaks to the interface.
As we discuss to improve the platform, @dantheman is focused on another currency

Would it be possible to properly develop a product before going in all directions?
That's a great question. I would love to know when the focus will be on developing the Steemit platform for social media users, rather than experiment with other possible currencies. We have three different versions of Steem on this platform. Let's figure out ways to make them useful - and to make this site more appealing for a wider user base. Then, once widespread adoption takes place, they can tinker with other ideas in their spare time.
Me again from yesterday! You seem to be knocking your head against a brick wall somewhat. I have been doing a few things - experimentally. The auto vote system is synthetic encoragement. The posts I have put up recently have been carefully constructed to test results. I could put up anything a few days ago and it would get a certain number of votes. If you watch the 'new' posts coming out I have seen them appearing with 40 votes after 20 seconds. Please! There are jumbo voters and there are jumbo anti-voters. Posts do get manipulated. The platform is under-resourced and lacks functionality. Everyone who responds to a complaint over this is so passive aggressive it smacks of pent up frustration from them, more than me. I registered for @busy a few days ago. Sounds like the dev bucks are going there - the shiny new version! The brown shirts will be watching me now - Steemit has a very 3rd Reich feel to it, not to mention the post I had to fight the brown shirts over last night!
