RE: I Give In - Steemit is Social Media in Blog Form - Why I Stopped Using Paid Post Promotion
I think a lot of the promotion also has to do with the urge to be recognised
Not just financially but by your peers...
Thinking the promotion will draw those peers to your post and otherwise they would miss out on your amazing content (at least this is kinda how i feel sometimes)
I agree with your line of thinking @felander. The human ego desires positive feedback from peers, it's human nature.
