First thoughts on Steemit

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

So, I must say that the first few steps on Steemit lack user-friendliness and warmth:

  • During sign-up, there is a jumble of keys and talk of delegation, very unintuitive.
  • On my first post, there are 0 human responses and 7 responses by bots.
  • After one post and one comment, the system tells me it is time to shut up now (no more resource credits).
  • Unbelievably intrusive animated banner ads plastered all over.

If this process is designed to turn off 99% of new users straight off the bat, I believe it fulfils that mission splendidly.
