RE: STEEMIT: OPPORTUNITY AND LACK OF VALUE ADDING CONTENT
Welcome to Steemit! This is a great post and raises an important subject. I like the fact that there are a bunch of people out there who just want to write good stuff and that we do not all bombard each other with hate and criticism like you get on Facebook and other traditional platforms. That being said, the monetary aspect of Steemit has been fuel to the fire of those who have tried to make money on platforms like Instagram, where getting followers and likes has become a business in and of itself.
There are a lot of good writers on Steemit and we really need to make an effort to find them and promote them. I actually do not care at all about making money on this platform. I like writing and I LOVE reading, so it basically has become a good place for me to see diverse opinions and information for free and free from the corporatist big media.
