Thanks so much for stopping by and helping to give my post validity! Some people will think I'm just trashing Steemit but it's constructive criticism, I'm enjoying this platform quite a bit so far.. it's just I want it to be as good as it can be. To your point, when u first start on here all that time it takes for a new user to make a post is pretty much wasted. You're not gonna get many views or upvotes because you just don't have followers yet. A great post that may have substance could garner more views and upvotes over time if there was a decent search feature and that should be rewarded if a simple meme can grab a buncha upvotes from an already established poster. It would encourage better content aswell as making the site and the investment better for all
