The only way for Steemit to do what it was made to is for everyone to operate as you have and as you have stated. I cringe as I see post everyday that deserve ten if not twenty times the rewards they've curated and I do what I can but as you've said, its not enough.
It honestly seems like many whales are taking advantage of boosting and delegation for personal gain with little interest in helping people 'out of the know'. And I can't even blame them because I've given up trying to help people get into crypto or anything related to it. I tell them what I've done and how much I've made on the markets their eyes sparkle but at the end of the day, they want me to walk them through it and they eventually realize, I'm not gonna hold their hand through it because no one held mine. The analytical problem-solving autodidactic self-starters are the ones who thrive and I'm sure 90% of the whales on this platform fit that demographic. This same demographic is usually the least empathetic to the needy unmotivated layman.
So, in essence, you have to convince the abstract free-thinkers to pacify the layman through nice seamless features and the like when its Steemits's simple, minimalist and almost complicated economy that keeps the site's quality of content higher by filtering those who simply have nothing to provide or no will to understand something more complicated than just a feed and IM.

Well said and thank you for the support! I think that some of the coming features will help to do what needs to be done; hopefully anyway! :)
