I no doubt know Ned and corporate leadership are extremely busy overseeing the day to day operations of Steemit and planning for it's future, but their not having an active role in keeping users in the loop about new technology and the direction of Steemit has a dulling effect on the platform.

A lot of new minnows complain of that dullness you speak of @orionschariot It's almost like a torpor. Steady as she goes can create a very dull ship at times. I'd like to see more proactivity on deck and less reactivity - IMHO!
