I have used it a few times to post articles but I didn't really earn much. Its really much better to be a passive user and curate since you earn much more. The tipping is more just a nice to have but it isn't really like steemit totally tied to the platform which I think is kinda cool makes people less money hungry.
Only thing I can say is with so few users and limited content it can quickly become boring to use
Yes it's good for curating an article once in a while but not really as content creator. Had the same conclusion.
