Thank you for your comment.

I, too, feel that Steemit will only improve as it grows.

But can you blame me for being a little impatient? So many of my former social media bastions---Twitter, in particular---are going down into the briny blue. We don't have that much time to build our own platform before all the others have been sunk.

But at least I still have a lot of commenters here, even if following people is still a largely undefined exercise.
