Yeah it can also be quite humbling to need a refresher and notice things we missed, basic stuff like curation being paid out in Steem Power. Steem Power also attracts 2% in interest every month.
So, while we can get a certain amount of Steem for posting blogs, videos and so forth, it’s often better to be engaging with other Steemians. There can be more upvotes this way and also.

There are even engagement competitions now.
