Hello @achim03
We all know that steemit is a monetary platform, we all (or most of us) start here to make a profit, we think, at first, publishing would make us millionaires. Especially when you see why they earn up to $1000, even for a meme post.
Then most are discouraged when they see the truth, which you must make your way up to be seen by the majority.
I think it's excellent to reward users who read your post, however, that brings another problem, people will come just to give an upvote to your post (maybe) and comment: Very good post!
And then when they see that they are not rewarded, they won't be interested in your post anymore.
The best thing would be to create an affinity relationship with your readers. That they really want to read what you write.
This is the slowest way. But for me the best.
But this platform is made in a way that it's hard to know if someone made a post or not. On the one hand it's good, because it forces interaction and on the other hand, if you don't want to know anything about someone, so it's easier to forget.
However, this platform needs that part. Let us know if anyone has posted something. And don't use an "extra" application to stay up to date.
Thanks for sharing 
Thanks a lot for this very clever comment my friend.
I think that what you point out is indeed true. I think that it is possible to make out comments where people actually read the post from others. The ones that put dumb comments can simply be ignored.
What is different from steem to a normal blog is that there is not one clear author and one reader. The roles are often interchanged and this asks for new tools.
Did you check this post:

Maybe this could provide an answer.
