What I like is that it seems people are voting my content more and I get rewarded more for the content I do upvote. I'm seeing about 3x more per week curation rewards so far.

What I don't like is that I'm fairly certain this is gonna reduce the need for bidbots, which will eventually lead to a liquidation of 10M-15M STEEM that is currently staked to the bots. Now maybe those tokens get staked elsewhere in the system (let's hope) but that potential is a pretty scary worst case scenario. I don't like it.

What steem is doing well is getting through hard forks better with less impact. They are speeding up development in general at Steemit Inc, while the community (S-E and others) are also pretty fast about spinning stuff up and getting out there. No other blockchain has that kind of dev talent (unless they are paying for tons of devs themselves).

In the future, I'd like to see STEEM finally solve onboarding. To me, that's the #1 barrier to growth. It should take <3 minutes to sign up and it should be free. Period. Short and sweet tutorials should be available to explain the system and the community(s).

I honestly don't know what would make me leave beyond maybe $.02 STEEM?
