Sort:  

I’m very curious how it will evolve.
I’m thinking more and more that Steemit is a friends circle. I know for sure that some of my follower do use automatic voting. It’s only 1 cent but every penny counts. Other are upvoting my post manually but always as long as it is crypto related.
People just don’t want to search for new content anymore. They are just following their whales or dolphins.
But because I like to be different I try to do the opposite! Trying to find interesting articles and try place genuine comments. Not hoping on an upvote (which I don’t mind) but hoping on some kind of interaction!

You're doing the smart thing... in a world of fish be a turtle!

And that's why I like you @fullcoverbetting ;)
