Nobody bothers posting any original content anymore.

Why?

Because the whales only vote for any posts with the following topics:

1. Introductory posts by good looking ladies
2. Topics about STEEM
3. News stories about STEEM.

Anything else gets ignored

I used to post content, but just don't bother anymore. I get more rewards commenting on articles for the three topics above.

I said this before, the whales are cutting their own throats with their voting, they are chasing good people that contribute good content away. That is how Steemit will die if they continue in their current ways.

The SP is not spread across a diverse enough audience. Then there will be more balanced content getting votes.

Sad, really.
