I don't know who started to advertise this, but fact is if once said it goes fast around the world. You truly believe all those people joining do so because they love to write and read great written stories?
Well I see it this way... I use writing here because nobody can delete my messages. I do not have the illusion to get rich via Steemit. I mainly live far away of people and try not to interfere in their business or lives. If I have 1 visitor a year it is much (nobody dares to visit me because of the wolfdogs) and if I pay 5 visits a year it is much too (read: I pass by to deliver something).
Once or twice a month I do my shopping..., I hardly read newspapers, so less contact and quess what? I still know everything, because people can find me via whatsapp (in case of need, I never make phonecalls either). LOL
Life is way easier and less stress this way.
I hope you find your piece of peace too.

Hi @wakeupkitty
I truly believe that many of those who joined are hoping to become influencers one day and monetize their content one way or another. That's my goal as well.
Those who joined hoping to make $$$ directly on Steemit will not stay very long. That's the fact.
Noone can delete your messages from blockchain, but Steemit (since it's front end) can ban you and make sure that your messages are not being shown on their site.
Would you personally be able to see any of your messages recorded as a blockchain transaction? I really dont know how do to it.
So Steemit can be easily censored as well. That's sad reality.
Im sure I will :)
Yours
