I have been on Steemit for over two years, I have cashed out and that is the main reason my SP is so low, I did get to have it over 500. As for followers I have over 2,000, I don't interact much and I think most of these followers are either bots or new members who are just following everybody they can, I guess most of them are inactive now. Most of the few votes I do get come from some bot or other.
