Do Steemians still read their news feeds?

Of recently, I noticed that most of the appreciation I get from my post are from steemians that are not on my following 9r followers list.

Personally, don't view my feeds all the time. I Prefer going straight to the tag that interests me.

So the question is "do steemians still view their personal or do they view a specific tag of interest like I do?

Keep the answers coming!
