Quality Content - That is just silly and will slow end-user growth.

I do not understand all the focus regarding "Quality Content". Steemit states they would like to become a Social Media Platform with many users. Neither FB or Twitter has ever encouraged Quality Content, excellent writing, etc. What they promote is a lot of content, community building, user-friendliness, ability to find and communicate with friends and like minded people. Adding a like feature or separate way to acknowledge you read and found something interesting might be a good idea.
Are you really going to continue to tell all the people who are coming here to partake in a new Social Media Platform they have to learn to become excellent Authors? Why? Lot's of people with a lack of polish have some interesting things to say.
I find all of the focus on quality content confusing. Want to be big? Make it interesting (which isn't always the same as Quality) Make it easy, make it friendly, and allow people to receive feedback. (such as likes or votes more often) Nobody wants to write in a quiet abyss, hoping for a whale. I know people want to make money, but at the expense of not gainning as many new users seems to limit the potential of this unbelievably awesome idea.
