Hi @kaliju, like you said I think it is mostly up to us creators to produce the content that will bring people on the site. Of course we can wait for developers to make games and new front ends, but the content is what make people stay.

You also mentioned written content gets more engagement. I didn't realise it before but I think you might be right!

It's a challenge for sure but, what will improve this platform is us creators putting out valuable content and constantly creating engagement. Sparking interest for people who might not have an account yet.

Another thing that helps is educating your readers about the benefits of Steem. The question now is how should we go about convincing readers they need to get a Steem account?

Ultimately, I think Steem had given an impression of blog for a living to people. I did regularly back link my posts to Facebook when I started. It's amazing the response from "outsider" had increased by many fold. What came in later was a total disaster where people start to view this as a gold digging machine. Everybody sign up an account and posting generic stuff in the hope to get upvotes. Pretty soon, the crowd died down, and I start to hear something like those who make it in Steemit simply because they have a whale friend supporting them. It's time wasting to earn dusts.

At some point I agree with you, it's entirely about what a blogger wanted to create and how that can help to bring up awareness to others. I've seen good writers wrote amazing piece, and ended up 0.06 payout. Let's see how can we turn that around.

You bring up a very good point here. One of the biggest issues with the steem echosystem right now is that there is more creators than users who are here to consume content. What happens is you end up having an insane amount of low quality content being posted everyday, burrying the good ones in the process.

If there was more influencial creators on the platform to bring in a huge following, that would certainly fix part of the problem. But still I'm curious to hear what people think should be done to change the way the public perceives the platform. After all you can't decide how the general public is going to use it. So the best we/they can do is come up with ways to promote a healthy echosystem and something that's viable long term.

Pardon my negativity, but I'm one of those whiner who liked to stir shit up. In my opinion, we just gotta get used to low expectation. I have learned to live with low payout and sometimes when I share something does not belong to myself, I would hit the decline payout button. Any social media platform that pays, would be heavily swamp with abuser trying to cut an easy way out. We seen enough circle jerker around, what left here are mostly some small time community to help supporting the smaller pond of plankton. Even that, got heavily abused by new comer. In the end, it's about delegate to the team, the team go stronger and return you a bigger upvote. That's all about it. Don't get me wrong, I'm just saying even a small community support is still an effort. But we can't deny that it's a smaller scale version of circle jerking.

That is the reason I have created my other account. I have my main account that is more focused on my photography and everything. Then my @derangedstreams is more of a gaming/video account where I can just relax and have some fun.

I think the only long-term solution to the problem of us being both the creators and consumers is to come up with a way for non-Steemit-member readers to become true consumers as well.

Muy interesante tu punto de vista @kaliju sobre como podemos hacer para crecer dentro de Steemit con multiples cuentas

I am here for you brother! I want to help you in any way I can. I'll start by saying yes, I agree that Steemit's power comes from talking to people on the outside and my Discord name is the same so feel free to hit me up. Also, my friend @chamberpunk was invited to steemit because I talked to that man in person!

Steemit has more content creators than content consumers. What can be done about it?

This is a very, very important fact. The people who consume content on the Steem blockchain that do not have a Steem account are very important for the value of the ecosystem. The more there are such people, the more interested commercial actors will be to create content on the blockchain and spend money on Steem Power to promote it thus supporting the value of STEEM the cryptocurrency. Those who will never create an account and who only read are users, too, and we shouldn't neglect them.

The activities on readers without user accounts should be tracked at a minimum.

Dear Sir, good evening I think you started a debate of something very interesting and everyone should think about this but in my opinion it's sometimes better to make a separate identity for every platform but it's not an easy task to get good attention but maybe it's new debate we should share our views and maybe something interesting will come out.
Good luck dear friend.

Dude, my opinion on multiple accounts is a big hassle. Here is what steemit need to improve when compared it to WordPress or even dlive per say. A blog is about a person's daily logs. Like you said, today I feel like talk about food, why can't we have a subfolder to store everything about food under one hood? Another subfolder for games, another on travel. With WordPress, all these can be done without snapping anything in the blog. It looks clean and tidy.

On the other hand, having more than one account doesn't really help in gathering audiences. No doubt it can help to categorize, but you'll also lose out some "potential " audiences. Like if I was expecting @kaliju to rant and say the eff words suddenly came @teaholic, I mean come on should I upvote or switch it off? Boil down to the basic, it is no doubt everything is about branding. @kaliju is the brand that I buy, I don't care if he's talking about shit, I'm here to support. At times we do shit post just to get by, I don't see why not? Once @roundbeargames mentioned, "this shit post has more content and meaning than any other shit post I've seen".

In my opinion people who limit the thought of any content then they have to correct themselves because diversified content and diversified format will bring the strength to the platform.

And in my opinion in future we will going to experience so many changes on this platform and we have to change with the time and change means the channels not yourself and your work.

Writing is important but, as writing all other stuff are equally important and when we have multiple content then only more people will adopt this Sphere for sure.

And every content is unique in their own way because we have to understand one thing and that is, we don't know who is posting in what conditions, so many times people throw judgements on others and in my opinion that should not be happen for sure.
