Honestly the platform is slowly dying. There are hardly any real people left. Bots flood everything and pointless posts get rewarded.
If you put time and effort in anything, you want at least recognition if not a monetary reward. Either is happening here, expect for a really small number of people.
Other social media platforms at least give you the opportunity to get a higher reach and more interaction. Here mostly bots like and comment on posts. That's frustrating. No one wants to work for a bot.
Maybe I'm looking at it in a wrong way, but I don't see a change in the near future.
