🤔 I think commenting is a great opportunity, interaction to attract people with relevant interests.

❗However, the fundamental problem is that most people on Steemit are not really interested in using the platform as a social tool. They just want to generate revenue, nothing else.

✅ In my opinion, most users are not really interested in other blog posts.

ℹ️ However, the point of this ecosystem would be we discover new and interesting content.

👌 Most curators very correctly indicate that no one should vote for a post just because they expect the author of the article to vote back.

If I look at the reality, there is not really a vote here without motivation, with a good SP background. And in order to be motivated, you need to come up with something that makes the person in question worth voting for your post... Well, yes, this is the $5,000 question 😊 You obviously need some kind of networking, because otherwise you can write great content, at most from one or two curators in competitions you will get some votes.

I think you have noticed this in your blog posts. You know, I'm new here too (by the way, thanks for following me, even though you haven't really engaged with my content yet), but I've already noticed that editorial freedom doesn't necessarily apply, because it's true that anyone can write about whatever they want, but no one cares , on the other hand, if you write a post for contests, it brings something, because one or two curators vote there. But the content conditions of the contests are binding, and I'm not convinced that SEO aspects are so beneficial if blog posts' title are totally same. I've been here for two months now, and I've already discovered that it's relatively difficult for Google to take a snapshot of steemit.com's content. Let's say it's a hobby for me, so I'm not interested in voting, but I do study the ecosystem.😉
