YouTube

I have noticed when someone from YouTube that has a bit of a follow comes over Steemit brings out the red carpet for them. They get massive upvote for little work and over time they don’t invest the time into the platform to get anywhere. Once the massive upvotes stop coming in they seem to slither back over to where they came from. They got away with some easy money but our reward pool just won’t reward them with that $2k every time like they want to make.

They also seem to notice that comment sections here on Steemit are not as bad as the burning trash heap of a comment section their YouTube videos are. So in a way they almost seem hesitant to even want tell anyone they are here. They get to enjoy for a little while not dealing with massive trolls spamming them garbage all day long.

Comment Section

While I do agree with you most people seem to only put in minimal effort. There are some wonderful places here on Steemit to leave and engage in the comments. Find the places here that you enjoy engaging and commenting on. I have a couple I don’t tend to share the places I love as I do not want the people who only post comments to get paid to find them.

It’s a sad but true thing. There are a lot people out there who only comment in places that pay. Those people post comments so fast and so short you wonder why any author would reward them at all when its clear they are just after that upvote without much thought or effort put into it.

There are some people in the list above that do spend a majority of their time enjoying content and commenting to it in a way to create engage tend make friends here. If you have not already joined The Curation Leagues I recommend you checking it out. While spam comments if enough are made can get people high ranking in League 2. There are also a lot of quality commenters there as well.
