This opinion will not be well received by the "new steemians" I used to have utopian idealistic visions for this platform, my hope isn't dead, I still see potential and I've met some cool people. But, tribalism without any cohesion is a recipe for the f word, factions. It's a distraction first and a novelty second. If the communities could manage to onboard and retain users within their niche a few could survive.

The reality is most rational people aren't inspired to create cool or meaningful content and the idea that a band of fractured pirate volunteers will piece frankensteem together is pure fantasy.

I've focused on satire and troll content that alienates me from the steem is life click.
