I like to promote any project that I can find (and understand) on the Steem blockchain.
I have been here for a while and I remember that at Steemfest 1 (Nov 2016) busy.org was being developed. Nothing else besides steemit.com existed.
When busy.org came out it wasn't the greatest if I'm honest and that goes for almost any new project that has been build on top of the blockchain.
But low and behold given enough time busy.org turned into a beautiful project full of rich features that steemit.com does not even offer. (examples: notifications, activity filters, drafts).
And the same goes for d.tube which was bad to use at the start. It was no fun uploading your video 7 times x 15 minutes just to receive an unknown error at the end to have it finally work at try 8. But look at it now! It works great and it gets better with every update.
And the same goes for dlive. The website was a little rough at the start. But again....look at it now. I think it just had an overhaul and it looks fantastic. I started to use dlive myself to stream Streetfighter V and besides 1 small hiccup, it has been flawless so far.
Another example: The mobile app Esteem used to crash every 10 minutes on my phone. But the latest version has been rock solid and I use it every day.
And these are just a few projects that are already out and working. There are many more, big and small (check https://steemprojects.com/).
All of them add value to the Steem blockchain.
And now dporn and STEEMNews.Online are being developed. Both don't look great yet but that is something I saw before.
To me, It seems like every month new projects are being announced. Will they all succeed? Probably not, but man there are some beautiful things being build here on this blockchain.
I talk about it more in my vlog and I also talk about how I see SMT's having an impact on all these projects.
I am a witness with our developer group @blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.
We build Steemify a notification app for your Steemit account for iOS.
