The flipside to the coin is there is good content on Steemit - it's just that people aren't seeing it (unless bots are used).

It's frustrating for people to create a video or write a thoughtful blog post - only for it to earn a few cents. This discourages people from wanting to continue to put their heart, soul and time into another time consuming post.

Steemit is still in beta and I hope down the road, sooner rather than later, the site will get more organized.
