I don't think Steem has a viable competitor at the moment. I've given up on whaleshares and weku which were the only two that seemed promising enough to try but it's pretty clear to me that they aren't going anywhere. Steem has had its problems but it's still a step above the rest.

Weku lol. That thing was pathetic. I think I still have 3 or 4 accounts on that shitty little platform.

STEEM is by far the best option from what's out there so far. With a little work and more marketing it could be a success but who knows. At least it's more than just a blogging site and can cover so many areas for people to use. Either way it's interesting to watch it all develop from the ground up.
