RE: How I figured out, why SteemSports is better than I thought, but still, why it will continue to harm Steemit if few things won't be changed
Just to butt in here, pessimistic as it may sound, I think the vision for Steemit (the centralized service, not the blockchain - I believe the distinction is clear to you all) is advertising. From the FAQ section "How does Steemit, Inc. earn money?":
Over time, Steemit will allow advertisers and bloggers to promote content by buying and burning Steem. Steemit can benefit from sales of Steem to advertisers in the cryptocurrency markets or offer advanced services to these advertisers and bloggers.
Also read the Privacy Policy in detail if you haven't already. It's pretty standard stuff, but in the context of this platform that is disappointing.
in my opinion, after last hardfork, pressure for adding to STEEM additional source of revenue is not so strong anymore. If steemit would go into direction of substeems, then maybe promoting post would be even more profitable.
