RE: The reason nobody cares about Steem besides ourselves.

[wholeself-in]

Please prove me wrong on the comments by linking exceptional content posted exclusively on the Steem Blockchain...

But why use "trending" as the measure of success? Things don't "trend" in this world simply because they are good. Many good things go unnoticed unless they are promoted, either through money or the real way organic growth works, through consistent networking and constant building.

Case in point:
https://steemit.com/@akiroq/one-of-the-most-profound-things-i-have-ever-heard

This is an example of the kind of content I come here for. And I am certain this author, like me, doesn't come here to get rich.

Sure, we all want to see our efforts rewarded. I'm not knocking your perspective as every word you said is true. I just think that Steem does encourage real, genuine, organic growth far more than it gets credit for doing.

@wholeself-in I think you didn't read the post.

Trending is the first thing people from "outside" see.

If they only find BS dapp shilling and posts about steem, they will never be interested in signing up.

I always read the posts. 😉 I think I just only saw what I was most interested in and generally dismissed trending as being worthwhile to anyone. I feel the same way about what trends on Twitter or Facebook or any other platform. That's not where there real stuff is. Maybe I'm just not the average person.

This:

When there would be content creators pushing out material that would add real value to the people outside Steem, and the whales would support them, then, and only then, there will be actual consumers from the "outside world" interested in what's going on here, and taking an active part on the discussion.

This is the part that matters most.
