it would require people learning to use something completely different from what they are currently doing.
Obligatory reply
Steemit is still in Beta
but it won't be much longer.
the Bot infection is serious.
how long before it kills the host?
one more thing.
only about forty thousand of us are real people.
who'd hung out on steem thru thick and thin.
the rest of the accounts are either inactive or bots.
what's a little bit of inconvience
to get rid of disease carriers?
You are likely using Chrome, FireFox, Opera, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, etc.
Those are all web browsers. They use the HTTP and HTTPS protocols which are centralized. They connect to web pages. That's it.
So when I said learn to something NEW I am saying something other than a web browser as it would require a new protocol that is not http or https to avoid centralization.
So it is much bigger than whether or not Steemit is in beta. Steemit is ONE centralized portal to the steem blockchain. It is a web page.
You were referring to CAN or CANNOT. I said sure it CAN be done, but to do it would require using something other than a web browser. It would require convincing people to interface with it in a completely new way.
So is it doable? Sure. :) Doing it without introducing centralization would likely require something other than the HTTP or HTTPS protocols.

it would require a new protocol
or perhaps a stand-alone app on MY computer that doesn't connect to anything but steem
kind of like the CLIWallet but with a Gooey Interface.
I mentioned that very thing to a geek several months ago.
He said it was doable but he had other things to do at the moment.

Yep as long as people were willing to interface with it completely differently then you could write something new that replaces all the problematic protocols. The key is getting people to adopt it as so many of them won't bother if it is not convenient. To them not convenient is often having to learn something new.
