true, steemit has made me doubts the ''centralisation'' but it's something bit. it has gained 100.000 accounts in a month.. in 2 years it's as big as over 5 million maybe or even more.. so for that time you have plenty of strategy's to build a following like jerry did. if you post consistently or just try to post every day it may be something... but like most of us who are here struggling we do have a job and not enough time to maybe write... this may also be a factor there are a lot of shitty posts.. atleast that counts for me. since everything he posts gets upvoted anyway you better spare your voting power to yourself or so... at least youself can be a upvote for yourself if your account is small
