RE: STEEM is still not Steemit, even if Tron buys Steemit.

"If we get censored, we truly lose everything."

Not really! Sometime censorship is absolutely necessary in order to protect the young and the innocent. Besides, censorship happens virtually everywhere in one way or another. It's a fact of life. Even here on Steemit, posts are being censored by higher-reputation members, who do not like their content for one reason or another, by down-voting them. With enough downvotes (sometimes no more than one), posts are hidden and their authors' reputations ruined. That IS censorship in its truest sense, no matter by what other name some may wish to call it.

Unfortunately. the Steemit platform ended up with far too many idiots like @themarkymark and @buildawhale with high reputations, who chose to abuse their down-voting power, and silence anyone who disagreed with them. And that is why Steemit failed and is now being taken over by Tron. Tron is now left with the task of trying to cleanup the mess that Steemit's corrupt management, and those like @themarkymark and @buildawhale created. If Tron succeeds, Steemit will once again become a great forum. If on the other hand, Tron fails to clean up the Steemit mess, Steemit will shut down for good.

"...here on Steemit..."

I am not on Steemit. You are not conversing with me on Steemit.

In addition to you not grasping the difference between Steem and Steemit, I utterly and vehemently disagree with you regarding censorship, and expect to see that disagreement reflected going forward during this transition.

Go with Steemit. Steem will be better off without you.
