My question is how many people did you interact with before you decided it was terrible. Have you read content from the good authors. There are some great posts on @curie @qurator @c-squared that find the best content. There is @helpie for newcomers to the site or apps to use like @actifit @steemhunt @magicdice.
Steemit is only one site on the blockchain which covers a multitude of areas. You said you won't post content for nobody to read but who are you?
Nobody has seen you yet. Would you go onto Instagram and expect hundreds of likes when you don't have any followers. Like any other social site you need to build a follower and build connections to follow. This is still in development stage but there is a lot to offer when you know what is happening. It's not the finished product but we will get there. Hopefully you stick around for a while to find out.

I wasn't aware I needed to interact with others.., in order for content to get noticed.
Can you explain what the difference is between me posting content, and how "interacting" with others benefits that? (Sounds like a jerk-circle, but willing to listen)
Nobody has seen me yet, no. So are you saying that Steemit only displays well established members first?
No, I can post in the NEW section just like everyone else. The problem is not many people view the NEW section. And people are posting crap, knowing bots will like their content.
"Networking" here is good because most people will ensure their peers are upvoted each week. So for me to have lots of friends, means more upvotes. Simple. Jerk circle crap.
The system is creating a boring stagnant forum.
The goal isn't for rewarding content creators.
The goal is to make STEEM appear more valuable. More demand. I can o with that, and will just keep making bots and programs instead of posting material or conversing.
Instagram and others lack this jerk circle approach.
