People need to tag topics with the proper tags. Steemit is top because most people posting here just tag with #Steemit even when not appropriate. Just because your posting on Steemit doesn't mean it belongs in #Steemit.
The second part of the problem is the curation system. People are going to tend to vote where they see the money went last time. Vote for content not just because it's trending.
The site does need better tagging features and better ways to filter/view topics. I hope this is coming in the near future.
There are a lot of shoulds that have taken a new person like me a little while. I did have some coaching from my boyfriend but he is learning too. I think it seems to be hard to track down and easy to use compendium. All of the info changes rapidly and comes from seemingly many authors. I am a humble mom trying to use the system the best I can. If you really want me to be able to tell my friend's. Other average joes most are going to need some help. Does this make any sense?

Yes, you are spot on and you are doing great so far - I upvote. I also realise the system is unique in that it's running on minimal rules of the play. And this is what makes it easy to use but hard to misuse.
