In all honesty, I came to Steemit because of the rewards the system give. There are countless social networks out there, but Steemit rewards people for their content. That does not mean that I dont engage people here; been slowly knowing people and getting more involved with Steemit, and now I often engage on threads regardless of whether I get rewarded or not. But that is how it has turned to be now, but I initially came here lured by the prospect of earning Steem.
