The Promoted Feature Adds Value to the Platform

Good post!
I agree, the promoted content section is crucial for Steemit as a community and to slow down the fall of steem's value.
I think that the reason for it not being used is when you start whatever money you earn you aren't going to spend on promoting your content, and as you grow it becomes a habit of not using and even liking it.
PS. I hate bidbots I think that they are destroying the platform but what can I do? 😑

Well that's sort of the problem in and of itself right? Clearly people are willing to pay to promote themselves, even if they are gambling for a shot at it being profitable. I think the Promoted tab allows us to get the same net result while benefiting the platform as a whole instead of only really benefiting the people selling the votes.
