It's not only because the bots and any other non-used, non-human accounts. It's about also a very bad user retention rate. (You are thinking about leaving Steem, don't you?) :( I think there are thousands of abandoned accounts. @busy.org has written that in this post they will take user retention seriously. This is a thing that I can agree 100% with.

Exactly... getting 150 votes and 10 "views" is not what I consider "blogging". Months ago, people would actually read and comment. Now with steemvoter, piston and steemtrail it is just ruined.
I cannot speak in the name of others but I'm busy (pun not intended) with making so I don't have time for consuming. I commented more today perhaps than in the whole last month, and it isn't much either. Perhaps it's just me, but I don't even reach the end of the medium level of my priority.
How one will get readers when everyone is dazed by the money aspect of Steemit? This feature is the most advertised because there aren't many other. When it won't be as important (the time when the active user base won't be made up fully of aspiring bloggers and investors) there will be readers. ;)
yes, you're on the right track.
