RE: NEVER EVER USE THE "CONVERT TO STEEM" BUTTON! ALWAYS ALWAYS GO ON THE INTERNAL MARKET by talltim

Why would the platform have such a choice so blatantly misrepresented?

It really makes me re-think what this whole thing is about. How deliberate was that UI choice, I wonder, and what does that say about the rest of the Steemit platform design?

What other "gotchas" lurk in the system?
