I agree. I think the copy/paste video posting is irritating me the most. I agree that a good video contains very useful information, but at least have the decency to write an intro or a review or anything else that personalizes it a bit, and to credit the source.
But in spite of the fact that it irritates me, a lot of those posts make good money. And it takes about 5 minutes to post them. So from the earning perspective they’re simply smarter than me, because I’m spending hours trying to get out one article a day, and they can chunk out 5 to 10 daily without all the work and frustration that comes with trying to write an original article...

Yes, I know how you feel and I think that is a major problem here on Steem. While original content get not much attantion people who copy paste just stuff from the web get a lot of money. But who should we blame for this? The one who is doing this or the community who is supporting this?
That’s why I try to make people aware by adding a banner zt yhe bottom of my post, asking the to upvote only unique an original content. If evernody starts doing that, those crappy post will eventually be ignored and will disappear. As long as they’re making money, it would be stupid of them to stop doing it, right.
For now it’s just the banner, but I’m still figuring out a real campaign to get the message out to everybody
