Steemit will need to find a solution how to encourage people to be creative and how to be fair and reward the quality.
It's already encouraging people to be creative, you get rewards.
How to be fair and reward quality is like saying that such things can be objectively assessed, when quality matters on the topic of subject and differs across the board, a joke or art very hard to judge fairly.

Rewards=SP=money. People are more encouraged how to be creative in the hunt for the $ than how to create a good quality content. Someone with 10k + in the account who is randomly rewarding 2 or 3 commentators with 100% upvote will be crowded. That popularity doesn't come because of his work and quality but because of his wallet. And this is something that in a long run is pulling back the creativity cos creativity is less rewarded than touching the big ones.
You must believe that touching the big ones doesn't require creativity.
Indeed, It is actually killing the creativity. Why would someone put effort if that is not rewarded or less rewarded than just following a current. Of course not all people are same, thanks God, but Steemit in order to be more fair and successful in a long run will have to address some issues, also related to rewarding system and distribution of power.
Well makes no sense to continue, we have different view about the community.
Just short about distribution of power only based on SP, should be also on karma. I see this as an vulnerability to the system, only money gives you power and if you have bad intentions you can work against the system once you have purchased your power and influence in the market.
My only problem is if you follow people that try and explain crypto to newcomers and steem. They all put out their own video explaining the exact same things. exact points you could put the videos right next to each other and they are cookie cutter. How is that really contributing helpful content if its exactly like who you are trying to get views from. People stopped getting paid as much while competing on youtube. Now that is moving into the steemit world it looks like to me. Also the referral codes to other businesses and mlm marketing is a big turn off to successful investors. Advisors steer people away from things that look even remotely like that because they do not last. Not saying steem is a scam but its only worth the faith people put in it. Its got me questioning big time the future and what I think of it. I could be wrong ive been wrong many times in my life just saying. This place would totally suck if because I don't use your code or upvote I get ignored because I'm wasting your time.
