When I think about Berinie, I think about the works of Eric Hoffer Bernie is a big account. So people come around for upvotes. Some people are just miserable and want to see the world burn. Bernie is always complaining and for some people that hate the platform Bernie sounds like a great guy. Bernie doesn't produce anything but he is always attacking. It's like a typical commie or tyrant. It's easy to rally behind complains that trying to have a discussion and create something.

Transisto and grumpycat/madpuppy tried to pull of some arbitrary policing on the platform too. But they bought their stake and eventually gave up. grumpycat/madpuppy pretty much just powered down. I think Transisto is now running a bidbot. They were forced to act in a certain way because they had more skin (funds) in the game.

why should a blockchain specialized on social media be better for dApps than EOS?

Think of EOS as a car and STEEM as an armored vehicle or an off-road vehicle. The scaling also gets easier because of the limit of the kind of DAPPs. @dlike @steemhunt @steemmonsters and even @dlive got most of their promotion and adoption through simply being on STEEM. It's easier to promote your product on STEEM. It's like releasing your video game on Steam or GOG.com The DAPP will hae to prove itself. Bu on STEEM it's easier.

I haven't used TRON. But none of the other projects are based around stake based voting on content creation. Even with the 13 week limit people like bernie just self-vote on single sentence posts. Now imagine if everyone started doing that. the overall quality of content would go down. So either we'll have to go for a system like @steemhunt ABV or simply make it risky to be able to vote. STEEM is making the investment riskier hoping that people would vote responsibly to improve the platform and take at least mid-term decisions. It doesn't work perfectly. but it does have a positive effect.

@dan says he will eventual build a social media DAPP on EOS. But at least until then we are at the best place to be.

It was nice taking to you :-)
