Competition is always good for users.To be honest I don't see them overwhelming Steemit in upcoming months.As you have said "You can never make all of the people happy all of the time" but if Steemit will start staying behind because of some current soultions it will for sure force @ned to at least change game plan a little and enter some changes to keep up.At the end of the day it's not that bad and it may even help Steemit develop.We as community should be happy that there are gonna be real competition😊
