RE: Eosit - Why Eos Needs To Be A Social Media Platform Too
Hmm.. EOS is the software. You can build a social network with EOS, but EOS itself does not "need to be a social media platform."

Well my point was that Eos, because it is DPoS, needs a motivated community to vote for block producers - people who stake their Eos tokens for voting. These people are so important and need to be rewarded for their participation by some part of the inflation in Eos. It's a vital function voting, but they cannot be rewarded for their vote directly. Moreover it is their social interactions like here on steemit that keeps the community strong and responding to problems with the platform. I try to argue this is governance. Like @eosgo and their forum site for example. What better way to reward them then by rewarding their acts of communication and efforts to respond to challenges through a knowledge sharing dapp that lives on the chain it serves. Call it an Eos governance platform that receives governance related posts and allows voting for posts by eos tokens staked in the voting category. That was the point that I was trying to make.
Why do you stake Steem power and do you vote for block producers? Do you read block producer updates and campaigns? Do you engage in discussions about rewards distribution? Some people do and it's important for steemits health.
