Words of wisdom. It's easy to lose motivation when you genuinely make an effort to write a good post and it gets no upvotes and followers. But then being consistent does help. Quality definitely is more valuable than mere quantity.
I've seen so many posts that haven't even tried to hide the fact that it's direct copy-paste from some news site. But again, the follow-for-follow and plagiaristic tendencies here will eventually cease to be rewarded. Hopefully.
The best way to write is as if it were a blog you were writing without any monetary incentive. Only then will you not be a sell-out with insertion of unnecessary images and ads.

I have no hesitation in warning those who copy-paste news stories that their work is not original and that they are stealing someone elses effort.

I do the same sometimes. I google a sentence of a news post that I find suspicious and link the original source back in the comment section. You gotta call this copying out. But again these posts don't earn anything more than one or two cents.
