I know that likes are not monetized in these plartforms, but let's face it, the likes on steemit are not worth much either.

I totally agree with you Hive account@nmalove am an entertainer on Steemit
I think every good entertainer doesn’t just want to make money but want their impact to be felt around them
I posted my song on Facebook and I recently got a recognition award for the song
Steemit is great but it hasn’t been promoted to a wider audience.

But I disagree on the ground that Steemit is for bloggers not Entertainer because even though you don’t get wider recognition for your art you get the monetary gain and with this promote yourself as an artist offline

Well this post was really helpful and enlightening
Thanks Hive account@nmalove
