RE: Is Steemit Favoring the Rich?
You do get rewarded for curating (upvoting) good content early, but that won't earn you as much stake as producing content.
If you just want to view popular content without curating or creating, that's great too, but no one is likely to pay you for it. As you may have noticed, Steem doesn't have advertisements and thus doesn't have that as a funding source.
Upvoting early gets u more ? I thought u just needed to upvote , befor the 7days ended @troglodactyl
The way I understand it is, and I'm new here too so take this with a grain of salt, to get curation awards you need to be an early upvoter on a post that becomes popular. Anyone can go find popular content at the top of the "hot" section. But if you take the time to "curate" new and unseen content and identify things that you correctly think others will like, then you deserve more reward...

Okok
I thank you for your insight on the matter. I don't necessarily agree with the way it is designed by I like the way you eloquently convey your argument.

As I continue to see some of the total shite that gets posted on Steemit and yet still gets big upvotes, I'm convinced there are "circle jerk" communities in Steemit that just support each other by voting each other up. They produce nothing of value but post constantly all day with stupid pics of themselves or unintelligible BS. If the Steemit leadership / community really cared about quality, they would find a way to start shedding this dead weight that steals value away from everyone else that is participating seriously in Steemit content creation
