Hello and Thank you for your responses and interest in Sphere.
We plan to focus on our own platform rather than "taking out" the competition. We're not trying to push old-style networks like Facebook and Twitter out of business. Decentralized social networks are unquestionably better, but at the moment there's room for us all, and lots of overlap in users.
We have significantly different features from Steemit, which is more blog-based. Sphere's social network will let users create groups to share interests, create campaigns and we are planning a marketplace that will use our Social Activity Tokens (SAT). We will implement new ideas suggested by our community and will constantly improve features to attract more users.
Right now we have an overwhelming amount of positive feedback. People are loving the project. They are looking forward to its success.
I like that you have a sober approach without over shooting with promises that cannot be maintained.
Old social media are unlikely to disappear anytime soon so, as you sy better focus on somethin unique/new to offer
Its nice to hear a calculated response from the DEV. And I like that they are focused on Sphere innovation and hears community feedback as well.
