I love it. Well said. I too as you know have quite a crowd on fakebook. But somehow I feel I've outgrown it and on so many levels that you just mentioned. For me it simply lacked depth and I found myself putting the same stuff in writing to inform people. So here I feel I can write it once and then leave it. The biggest thing for me moving over is I've been writing for some time now and twice I've had shaken encounters with publisgers. Some of my work has been stolen by an editor and may already be published somewhere without my name or knowledge. This particular editor has stolen a few other people's work and some has been found to be published by her under a dodgy name. So my trust levels are way down on that system being I've already had one book stolen. So I decided to start putting my poetry and other things I write in steemit. It's a good thing for me. It's proof that I wrote it and it can't be removed from here. I also have limited experience with technology so for me this is a great place for me to store my smaller pieces I write. Especially my poetry that at some point I also intend on starting to do videos reading it. Take it from the written word to the spoken.
