Ned Scott, CEO of Steemit, announced that it is laying off approximately 70% of its employees. This step was taken in connection with the weakening of crypto prices that occurred lately.

I find steemit a bit ''stiff'' and too rigid in its rules for someone who may just want to run a blog like we used to do with medium. Why should I power up to be able to post as much as I like?? Its like paying to be able to blog. The earning are not that great also and with the advent of bots upvoting posts, it seems like the system is not fair as the content is not upvoted on merit.

Old story here, but yeah the new RC system is not so fair, it looks like it is good just for the whales, so they can play around the network without the bother of the small/new users
True, not everyone is a whale and not everyone has funds laying around that they can use to power their account so that their content can be seen and earn. Content should not need to be backed by money but rather good content should be rated/upvoted according to merit. The current set up seems like a pyramid scheme!
I don't agree.  There's lots of curators that look for good content and upvote it.  Lots of people delegate their steem power to new contributors too.  It can be hard to get noticed at first but keep making good content and you will be.  Interacting with the community helps as well.

Any idea why steem is losing its monetary value as compared to SBD?
SBD is designed to be more stable than steem.  The peg to USD isn't strong though, so it has gone much higher and now, lower.  SBD is currently pegged to steem.  Its all quite complicated, but I read about it here https://steemit.com/steem/@buggedout/steem-dollar-peg-to-usd1-usd-is-broken-again-but-not-how-you-might-think

Interesting article - Crypto Will Go Mainstream in 2019: Here's Why by @bchainbastards

When thinking about the most important paradigm shifts of the 21st century the list certainly starts with the internet. For a long time, however, it seemed to only be useful to the tech savvy. It was only with internet 2.0 and the advent of social media and the user’s ability to create their own content that we started to see mass adoption penetration.

If you open the Vessel Wallet for STEEM and attempt to start off with a new username, the checking process to make sure the username is not already taken goes on forever.

How to open an account with the Vessel Wallet and get a new username without the checking process lasting forever?Huh

Please help.

Thanks.

Maybe it could help you some articles written on this topic, about Vessel Wallets! There are some interesting ones, on Steemit, and you may be able to find the answer you need https://steemit.com/steem-project/@jesta/vessel-pre-release-looking-for-feedback !

This has now been fixed. They've put through five patches, LOL, but it seems to be working smoothly again.

Yes , it is fixed now  but definitely Steemit is no longer a platform for a struggling blogger who does not want to invest. With all the comment restriction in place (if you are not investing in it.) you will not be able to build any relationship.
In short, I think a blockchain powered blogging platform is a big failure now.

Hi, is there Steemit bookmarklet similar to Bloggers "Blog This" bookmarklet that allows you to insert highlighted text from other page into a new post?
I've found this: https://steemit.com/steemdev/@eaposztrof/customsubmit-steem-it-bookmarklet-script-released but I'm not even sure if it's what I'm looking for and it does' work anyway.
Thanks in advance.

Just wait for the system to be properly implemented.  Looks like most of us can't use it right now but that will obviously change.
