I think they are listening, and beginning to think more.@andrarchy had a post about the different users, so at least he sees some of the issues. We can hope that people will come together a bit more and look at as many issues as possible before masking rash decisions, there were many not happy with HF20, their concerns were just brushed aside for the "we need to try something" crowd. "We can always roll back" they said. People need to be able to look forward, and do it with clarity of sight, no the foggy foresight of we can always go back. I honestly think that Steemit Inc. will be listening to ideas from the trenches, and perhaps no so much from the people standing in the safety of the bunker mentality. There is at least one person trying to understand "who" the users are, and trying to not ignore them.
