Well said. With reference to your previous post on this subject, I think that simplicity has mass appeal. Medium is a blogging platform, simple as that – and now it's a paid blogging platform. But Steemit? Try explaining that to your friends and family in just one sentence.
Which precisely reminds me of when I used to try and explain what the internet was to friends and family in 1994, or when I tried to explain what wifi was a few years later. Really game-changing innovations are often hard to explain in the early days.
