You have 17 views on this posts... and already 10 comments. What is not dead about Steemit? Community ;)

People are here, and they are talking. You can make an experiment. Try to post every time exactly the same content here on Steemit and also on another media, like facebook, reddit or medium.

I would be very curious about results - I would not be surprised that you would receive more comments in different places (Steemit is still very young), but still Steemit is far from being dead ;)
