I agree that it is an oversimplification, but 2 years is a long time on the world-wide-web. A lot can happen between now and then and the recent trend is concerning. We now have less people posting, voting and interacting with the platform than ever before. The market cap is tanking, the price of STEEM is now under 50 cents. The diversity on the trending page has gone way down, out of the top 10 right now, 5 are about Steemit-specific topics; and the diversity of authors on the trending page has gone way down. These factors will continue to compound. The less people make, the less work they will put in to the platform; which will cause the quality of the content to go down and less people to sign up. I love the platform and plan to keep using it, but the way things are looking right now, we just don't have 2 years.
