RE: Could this be the real reason why Steemit's Alexa Rank is falling?
Great job done.
And here is my view.
What Steemit now, is just a circle of people with high reputations that upvote one another and most of them don't care to bother about new accounts and new contents. I have seen some helpful ones, who try to promote quality even if the account is in the early stage. But they are very less. And often the accounts, who post good contents are neglected even after their considerable time and effort here on steemit. So, why would good writers or content creators stay here if there are other good platforms where they at-least get lots of views and good response.
I see that most of them don't have time to make those so called whales and dolphins happy, even to just get them started while they are already a huge success on other platforms.
Yep, it sure seems that way.
When bots make more money for you than curation, people just get lazy.
There is quality here. Just it's just swamped by all the crap.
