It's funny, I have just written a short piece about a popular subject, however I find usually when I try and write something that will attract users, nobody seems to care. Whereas if I write a piece about crypto, or how great Hive/Steem is/was, then the votes come flooding in.
Not sure how I feel about it, I just think it's interesting is all.
It means our rewards are not incentivizing writing content outsiders want to see (imo). I think this is just a learned habit, we can improve it with UI I believe, or at least we can try.
Yeah, people have been saying that since 2016, and I don't see it changing any time soon.
