Complete agreement from here. It takes a blogger to post consistent quality to be noticed and have their blogs earn revenue from ads. It takes about 3 years to establish a level of fame to earn cents on blog for those beginning years. But in Steem, the process shortens and this gives people the idea that it's a money printing platform they are entitled to earn from.

Some people abuse the reward pool because they bought their way for that privilege. It's a different world of topic to go that direction. But for people that didn't spend anything when they started here, they need to learn to earn their audience first before that sense of entitlement comes in. I'm glad a lot of people left from my community's end.

The amount of trash posts I have to read through in the tag wasted a lot of my time. It covered a lot of promising authors that needed more attention and support.
