I didn't know about the Reddit link for Steemit, that's a cool historical nugget.
Thanks
I think those four advantage points are good ones, but as you alluded to, they do require some understanding, which is sometimes brought on by bad experiences.
Like the account Ownership is really important to people when they or their friends have been deplatformed. So as you have said it requires some life experiences or a level of understanding many don't possess. But that just means we need to do a good job of explaing it.

I assume that was the origin of the name. Steem was short for Esteem.
I like that Hive is run by the community rather than by a corporation and that we profit from it. This ought to be the future of social media.
Cool.
I like E-Steem too because it sounds like holding someone in esteem or admiration. Perhaps to cute for some, but a nice touch.
I also think a community run social media platform is the future.
If memory serves me right Justin Sun also bought or was awarded Steemit Inc., or whatever the administrative office was called, when he bought the so called “Ninja-Mined” cache of several million Steem. Then what happened next is a dark chapter in our history, but it did lead many of us to the fork and an evolved version of the former community.
So in a way he caused the evolution of Steemit to Hive away from a social media platform, which thought it was run by a community to one with much more community governance. And no CEO or corporate office. 👍
