One of the best things that can come from SMTs is the ability to have dApps with clear vision and the ability to share it.
When it comes to Steem as a whole, the rewards and vision are confusing, and the lack of communication is frustrating as can be.
I wish we could freeze the whole thing until SMTs as I am having trouble with motivation under the current conditions.
If the RC market is powerful, maybe I can just ignore the site for a bit. :)
It is definitely confusing considering the entire ecosystem and the good thing is that new users will hopefully never have to see any of it unless they are interested. Same with all the Steem drama associated.
For me I have so many interest areas that motivation can rise and fall in various areas and I am okay enough. Perhaps that is what you need, a little apace from Steem and some other content?
The dream ;)
