Steemit, Inc cares about scale, not as much about the existing users....
Yes, I've heard that before and I think that is slightly incorrect. They treat existing users as early adopters. After scaling up, they'll treat everyone as late adopters and shift their priorities (hopefully, lol).
But I understand the need of a much softer approach for people expecting it at this time.
I think Steemit has reached a limitation here, because they really need to push forward with development.
That doesn't mean others can't pick up and soften up the experiences in their DApps. It's true, when blockchain related changes happen it is likely we will have some disruptions. Expect them!
Did you hear bitcoin had a bug after all these years that facilitated an attack on the blockchain, and the same bug could have been used to create more bitcoin beyond the 21 million limit? The bug was unexploited before it was fixed, but it happens with blockchains.
To answer a previous comment, I doubt steemit.com will be dropped as a domain. It is still the main point of entrance for organic traffic toward the Steem blockchain.
I do think however that THIS website as we know it now will have its days numbered after SMTs are released. From what I understood, it cannot be upgraded to look professional, because it was only meant as a test website so it was made quickly and not the best choices were taken for a production site of its usage and visibility now.
to be honest. i welcome to change and competition to steemit. can’t wait to see what people create in the future as steempeak is a great example of what can be done. it’s exciting.
