RE: We are promoting Steemit the wrong way. Here is what you need to know...
Can't agree more. Unfortunately, most people try to bring people here promising riches and money and as a result we have too many content creators that suck balls, usually don't improve, get frustrated and eventually leave the platform with a bad taste. These people usually get bad hurt and go on other places saying steemit sucks, achieving the exact opposite result.
We need to bring more real content creators, the consumers will follow. Fortunately, this seems to change. We already have some really talented people onboarding the platform, like @furiouspete123 and @tjkirk
As for the rest of us, normal people, all we can do is try our best and produce the best content we can !
I don't consider us "normal people" though. We are content creators. We are able to read, understand and make comments, that also make sense. We know the difference between good content and shit.
This is not something you can say about everyone - a fact, that you can observe in even the comments coming in to this post. "Normal people" don't even read, what is being said here nor do they understand.
I don't believe, that everyone can be thought to create content. The numbers and experiences from other social networks show something different. I don't even think, that we need to educate people to become content creators either. What we need, is more clarity what the different roles are and what we can (and can't) provide for these different roles.
