I understand that many will post useless things that will get upvoted. I don't think if you create good content that people value or solves a problem for them, that you will have an problem earning some rewards.
What are you interested in? Whatever that is, write about it.
I just read some of your articles and now I see why you feel that way. Maybe write about something related to the Steem platform or helping new Steem users. Until we get a diverse group of people who care about politics and current events, it may be a bit more difficult, but hopefully not impossible.
I just sent you 1.75 Steem for your troubles from Openledger. I hope you will stay.
I'm just trying various things. Those are the things I happen to be interested in. There are a dozen people posting lists about "How I made a billion on Steemit" and pushing it to the top with 50k Steem power :p
I mean, go look at the front page if you don't believe me, it's literally identical, down to the very story, as last week.
That's not healthy for the platform, regardless of anything I've personally posted.
