Man I am not taking it personally and actually I was trying to be funny @ats-david. It didn't work. 

I agree with you if you compare it with generic social media platforms. The problem is that to compete with such markets you need to have the big balls that not even the entire Steem all together has. What I mean is, there is much more possibility for a niche project to succeed outside of this platform than for generic ones, simply because there is much less competition. I would focus completely on niche projects and maybe from there start thinking about trying to beat the giants.
