Steem has a huge learning curve and much of it can lead to self-debates like this. Most have no plan, or had no plan when they started.
The main thing is that we enjoy what we do here on Steem and if that leads to experimenting with things that’s awesome. Everything is even better if it can contribute to life’s obligations.
One thing is important though: nobody should feel obliged to anything and enjoy the freedom the Internet offers.
And no, there’s many people who don’t actively post. As or myself, I have found a slightly different way of resteeming, in the form of an alt, that also because Steemit, Busy.org and Co. don’t offer any option to add commentary to shares.
I agree though that many regular resteems can feel noisy and become annoying, but IMHO that has more to do with no interface (Steemit, Busy, and Co.) being optimised for huge amounts of posts.

^ 100% - I didn't even know about Busy.org. Thanks for stopping by :-) And love the reply post!
Thanks. The pleasure is entirely mine.
Here’s hoping some day that account has a decent number of followers and both provides extra visibility, commentary, and also a nice upvote (as well as a possible revenue share if integrated in the interface of Steemit/Busy). For now it’s a work in progress. In a perfect world there are multiple authors and an interface has a this post is a reply to feature, like YouTube has (had?) for video replies.
PS: if you quote text and use a > followed by a space before the quoted text (paragraph), it will show as a blockquote (semantical name).
Ha I was wondering how to do the block quote thing. Thanks lol. Cheers to success for all the 'right' reasons :-)
