A one day old Intro post of ordinary content, with 552 votes, $338.37 made, and a 55 rating?? This is everything that is wrong with Steemit, as far as I can see. As I suspected and posted about, Steemit is becoming, or always was, a pay-for-play casino. Content is almost irrelevant.
The problem is also that people vote on posts to get curation reward, not if it's a quality post. If a post doesn't have many upvotes the first 30 minutes others wont vote even if it's really good. Then if someone post a cellphone photo and buy an upvote it could get 500 more votes in 10 minutes. I still believe in steemit but right now it's idiotic!
@juliakponsford curates a list of art on Steemit, might start there. I also follow @trufflebot to get a list of (usually) quality content that didn't make the front page.
Welcome!
As one toying with the idea of throwing myself wholeheartedly into producing what I immodestly regard as quality content, I too am finding it hard to find too much of real quality among the torrents of dross. Of course one man's meat is another's poison, and nobody should be criticized for doing their best, but it does seem thin on the ground. Certainly on the Trending page, though maybe by ferreting around we'll find more than we imagine.

Should we here blame steem eco system algorithm or people in respect of this post when I compare the content quality and response of this introduction post. Such phenomenon gives slight demotivation and create mistrust between user and steem guidelines. Hope steemians will bring up more protocols to ensure quality.
Don't give up hope, keep up the good content. If you are on any other platforms that you have posted on, post it here too. By the way, I highly recommned Minds.com, an excellent site. You get a lot more feedback from fellow users. and it's not set up like a casino. Good luck to you!
No I didn't. I have written some very decent content. It's the nature of the Steemit system. By the way, I am observing not complaining. Please don't make assumptions, you are free to ask my motivations.
Stop self promoting your own intro post on this guys post by talking down on his.. Have some class before you get downvoted into oblivion... Honestly... I agree that this isn't the best written post, and maybe it is only trending due to a fucked algorithm and bots, etc., but complaining about his post just so you can link your own (over 3 times in these comments!!!) is really low.
Its not only about promoting post but more then that. I did make a post on this guy as well and mentioned these guys who have commented. When he can promote himself with bots, why i cannot promote myself in my OWN words. You have got problem with me promoting myself ? All your downvotes are emotions based.I saw that you made a Introduction post 23 hours below. Your downvotes have no legal and ethical place.
I am downvoting you because you used a foul language word in comments which is against community ethics and steem guidelines.
If you are agreed then what did you do for it ? And then you are hitting a guy who is self promoting in some manner. If I am smart enough to carry my narrative along in my narrative, what set you on fire?
Hey man. Your introduction post you linked is very nice but talking shit about someone elses, just so you can pllug your own post link is no better. You posted your ink in his comments 7 times. I had to downvote some of them.
I referred it in my note that its not against anyone. And I just showed community what I felt and I have all the right according to steem principles to share it. And those comments is not spamming as it was all related to topic and comment.
About your downvotes, you got the right to use it so use it but dont judge intentions. They could be hurt too as you yourself admit that its very nice. Quality needs voice as well

If you had made these same points without shamelessly plugginng your own intro post in the comments 4 times, I would have agreed, checked out your profile, followed and upvoted your post... but the combination of hating on it with promoting yourself shamelessly has lost my respect.

I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit. Not even verified!!!! 99% of the trending post is rubbish.
It's all about buying bot services to get upvotes/trending/hot etc.
The problem is also that people vote on posts to get curation reward, not if it's a quality post. If a post doesn't have many upvotes the first 30 minutes others wont vote even if it's really good.

I agree with you friend
Honestly, I'm looking around Steemit and I'm quite excited to start posting here. But where is all the good content? Where's all the art?
Maybe in #art?

amazing how a post like that exceeded what i took 3 months to build.. and still a plankton.

Stop it, you made me laugh hard.
I agree with you ..
how can this be so fast ! 🤔
Paid money for upvote bots and views....
You're right, i'm just landing on steemit and this things scare me a little bit
@mmo-mmo I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit
the guy has a normal Bangladeshi's monthly income in his pocket now! maybe this is the beauty of steemit :)))
in a single post!
I have more than 700 posts and 4 months here and rarely I see above 5 upvotes with few cents! :D
I know how you feel. I have +200 posts, and my account has a value of $0.65. I guess buying bot services is the required step.
Maybe, or did you ever think it was you?
No I didn't. I have written some very decent content. It's the nature of the Steemit system. By the way, I am observing not complaining. Please don't make assumptions, you are free to ask my motivations.
hahah nailed it
I wish he could tell me the those mysterious and hidden way to get the same comments on my this introduction post (Sigh)

Nothing against the guy, but trending page quality, I think not.
Yeah right. I ffeel the same when I compare it with thisintroduction post.
Not against the guy but seriously Trending :/

Get lost SJW. This was objectively a shitpost.
