Greetings friend @stef1
On the one hand, one of the reasons is that Steemit has become a familiar place, I think much more human than before the fork, an example we have the diversity of charity projects that are currently carried out on the platform, on the other hand, I am here because Steemit is the best, in fact the only project in which I can currently invest knowing the difficulties and economic imbalance that our nation lives, so I am focused on staying active most of the time to achieve a good return.
Good topic to know the different points of view or reasons to be in the platform.
HI @adeljose, thank you for sharing your opinion, I think last few years everything became more like the place where people building up circle of friends due to engagements. Interesting that via regular blogging many know each other well.
When someone would like to reach something then the person need to put a lot of time and efforts but anything is possible if we follow certain rules.
It is only a shame that even such simple way of become successful is not used by many. Hope people will see it and might make some decision for themselves.
