Hello again,
I do not intend for this article to be click bait but I've noticed some things in my short time on steemit. I was steemit a few years ago under the account . In that time period the amount of money made on steemit was very low for some people which was definitely understandable.
I remember very vividly that steemit saved some people's lives. It was one of the main reasons I loved the platform. People would get donations they would get thousands of upvotes and they would be able to pay for a life changing surgery. People even had steemit be their income and their way of happiness.

There are some problems with steemit. Bots are very controlling on steemit and it is a problem. Steemit doesn't have the big thousand dollar posts it used to have and big and trending posts barely eclipse the 100 dollar mark.
This doesn't mean this is the end for steemit. I think there was definitely hope. Steemit's appearance of deadness could also because of the crypto market not booming the way it once was. There's no $15,000 bitcoin and $1.30 steemit anymore and it is most likely one of the reasons for this.
The concept of steemit is brilliant and I still have hope this platform grows and becomes a leader in social media.
If you made it this far thank you for reading and upvote and follow for more!
