Welcome to the community. It's true that Facebook is in a decline. They slowed that decline with the acquisition of Instagram but the info mining they use for their advertising is getting ridiculous. It's advantageous from a marketing standpoint but will be all for not if you have all your eggs in the Facebook basket. I see Steemit as one of those platforms that plays the long game with empathy and has the ability to produce real customers and not just a sale. I enjoy your perspective.
