RE: Why are so many posts on Steemit about Steemit?
The people who vote are responsible for the payouts. A lot of people are looking for popular things to upvote so they can ride the curation wave that accumulates. Money drives much of the voting behavior overall. The echo chamber of positive imagery for steem is rewarded, and revealing the dark side is frowned upon by many hehe.
Yeah you are totally right. It's a sad thing that people don't upvote the stuff they like but more the stuff they think they can profit from
