Well, we have the same old problem. The site apparently isn't worth using except for the potential rewards. And even that doesn't do a good enough job of retaining users.
But what did we see from Steemit, Inc. today? A change to the welcome page that only focuses on the money-making aspect of the platform, probably thinking that the money alone is the big draw here. They're obviously not getting the hints or just don't understand what the hints mean.
Steemit Inc. seems to be focussed on easy on-boarding processes and on promotion to increase the total number of users, while ignoring user experience and user retention, and the image of "scheming at the top, pennies at the bottom" that, true or not, is spread by disgruntled users.
Some expectation management (you mentioned elsewhere), a better Steemit with more social-media functionality, measures to reduce the number of slippery, scheming reward-pool rapists, and a more flat income distribution where eventual income is less dependent on how much you already have or even a cap on maximum pay per post (filthy socialist, me, go on, say it) would go a long way to reduce the number of disgruntled users who don't do Steemit's image much good even if they are wrong.
