It depends how you view this I guess. If you create content online for a living, Steemit might not be worth spending your time on, at least the way things currently sit.
If you are not that person and are hoping to a hit a few home runs from your content take the ride, then it is a good fit.

Spending mass amount of time on creating content here might be better served on other avenues for guranteed payout. Just my thoughts anyway.
