I really like where you went with
Thoughts on the development of steem
Your items are spot on and would in fact be, IMHO, an improvement. The FLAT curve and the bi-monthly reward system make a great deal of sense.
As well a thanks to @jerrybanfield for the budget account of 100 steem.
I just did get my witness running last week and will have a seed server up by the end of next week.
Granted I own a hosting company so I have access to bandwidth and equipment so the overhead is not as bad for me. But that being said it is equipment and bandwidth that I personally will have to take care of if I bring on a new client and need a couple for dedicated servers to deploy his application and that is a highly likely scenario.
Another way that would help the lower end witnesses financial burden would be to bring them into the block rotation more often than what is seen here. https://steem.bitcoiner.me/schedule/
I will likely through a witness vote your way as I see you are looking seriously at how to improve steemit. I just hope that your recommendations like mine do not fall on deaf ears. Until we are whales our post still don't steam much on STEEMit.
Hey thanks for dropping by... Good that we share a vision, also good to see that more people with entrepreneurial spirit are working together to make this platform great..
We all are 'minor' shareholders as of now
Witness vote on your name :)
