Every media platform on the Internet has paid promotion, and I'm lucky if I break even. Your post offers zero insight or value to the platform. If I wanted to just drop links, I can post 1000 times a day and not even break a sweat.
I am not saying my post has amazing value, I didn't ask for votes or pay for any.
My issue is with the flaws in STEEM where vote bots and whales seem to dominate. It's not a sustainable model.
I came to steem because I thought it was going to be a truly decentralised social media platform that rewards content creators.
But it's just a place for whales to make money. Which is why I am moving my investments elsewhere.
I will still post here as I like some of the people. But as an overall platform, it has a long way to go.
Who knows, if at the next fork something changes or the user base goes up, I might get my UK based crypto fund to make some major investments into STEEM
Unfortunately you didn't do your research very well.
If you look at my first few posts, you will see that I did put quite a lot of effort in. But I then realised steemit doesn't actually reward good content. So I switched to shorter and simpler things I wanted to share.
Anyway, thanks for taking time to read my replies and answer my questions. It's appreciated.
It might be hard for you to believe, but I would love to see steemit succeed and replace Facebook! But as a user, the experience hasn't been great. As an investor, I always look at the user experience.
Well, how many of those accounts are active? About 20K per day?
I didn't expect to be found instantly. But I just took a look around and I could see very large payouts going to certain people while other posts, which as a lowly minnow, I managed to find from other lowly minnows got little to no attention.
I am not saying these things just to have a rant. I am saying this because it is something that needs to be addressed if steemit supporters really want to see their network expand. I would love to see steemit do well.

Can say that for all your posts. I put more thought and time into my post of just "sharing videos" as you say than your last 5 posts.

Yeah, because out of 800K accounts you would be found instantly.

I have no idea, but in the last 30 days 158,229 unique accounts voted and 121,588 unique people posted and/or commented.
These are up to date stats (I just queried the blockchain as I typed this).
