As much as I love to gush and commend often the feats that Steemit has achieved in recent times, I am also open to criticism for the sake of advancement.
One major shortcoming of the Steemit community that doubles as both a blog and a social media platform for budding writers, cryptoinvestors, developers etc is that it has waned in its prosepct in developing its social media platform.
I am privileged to be a user and also a member of social media apps like; facebook, instagram, twitter, linkedIn and so on. These platforms, upon inception weren't perfect in their strategies parse, but with time and progression they became apex ambassadors in their own rights and seclusions.
Therefore I urge the Steem society to upgrade and step up their game to increase their membership base, please existing subscribers and give them a reason to stay. Imagine being hindered to send DMs and private messages to users. The only resort is to tag along certain connotations, user names or trends. I feel Steemit can do a whole lot more. Users should be able to interact on a personal basis rather than commenting alone on each others curation or content.
I do hope this post is taken into consideration and quick measures are adopted to battle this challenges.
Thanks.

I believe there is a way for people to chat besides commenting on posts but I am not positive. It might be through one of the app’s people have developed.
One of the main differences between this platform and others is this is open source. Fakebook and the other mainstream platforms are not. They also are heavily invested in their own company making all the money whereas Steemit is spreading the funds to its users albeit quite modestly but it still does.
My point being is that this is a different kind of social media; we are on here to make money by supporting each other and the mainstream platforms are the typical western design: all about your own business bottom line, everyone else can suffer.

I thought it was open source? If it’s not then how do people develop apps and other media that connect to the Steemit block chain? I may be ignorant to the details but I had assumed it was open.
