The biggest problems Steemit has are the following:
- New user retention rate.
- Rewarding quality content
- Accumulation of power
Number 1 can be affected by the community in some. Im a minnow that gets little attention except for a very kind whale that supported me from the start, (thx @vortac 😁 )but i take it upon myself to try and encourage some minnows to create more, those that create great content no one ever sees.
Whats happening is that people keep coming here, they write 2-3 posts, work hard on them and never learn about the networking aspect of Steemit. Never learn about discord or its various channels. Never learn about bots, competitions. Etc. They see that 0.00 payout and thinknto themselves why bother.
