I believe this is why steemit will die - you can only create so many random blog posts with '...And this is why steemit rules!' before the entire platform is viewed as garbage.
Exactly, content wise, it is a big fail, be it steemit shilled or not steemit shilled. If steemit had started with a group of pioneer star bloggers and writers, it might have become sticky and bring in more users. Bought a little steem and the price spiraled downwards. Luckily, i did not buy much steem.
Checked the steemit content every now and then, it is only full of millennials with their "yeah steem yeah steemit" BS. Never clicking any steemit links again.
