Why do people think that steemit is get rich quick scheme?

Steemit  I know is supposed to be a social media that rewards users for content created using it. This very philosophy or ideology has been greatly eroded by the number of people thronging to it with very aim of making profit  not for using it as a form of social media with added of which it is created for.

These set of people always talk about quality content and upvote which to me is good, however, this in the long run will harm steemit platform.

In other social media it's all about fun and information dissemination which is what social media is all about. This helps it to thrive notwithstanding that authors or creators are not rewarded for their works and the owners of these social medias get all the benefits from money generated as result of posting on them.

When minnows are yet to get or achieve this they tend to abandon or become less interested on steemit.

I use steemit as a social media which means I simply post what I want to post and not necessarily for the monetary upvote. However, if I'm rewarded for that itits and added bonus to me.

I do advise anyone that want to use steemit to use as a form of social Media. This simply means that you should post whatever you feel comfortable with whether it will be rewarded monetarily or not and also comment on what you feel comfortable and upvote whatever you like and not wait for content which is PhD thesis before you do the needful.
