Would you use Steemit.com if it didn't pay you?

Just a little thought experiment.

In our age of data and information manipulation and control, decentralized platforms for expression are essential. I just wonder sometimes how many people think about the true value of the Steem blockchain...

No I wouldn't because I feel it's not developed anywhere near enough to enter the competitive social media market. A few problems being most activity being bot activity and many people in it for the money and nothing else. Causing alot of copy and pasted content from other sites and loads of groups in it just for voting as well as too many big whales with all the voting power and anyone who doesn't actually put money in, and quite abit doesn't actually have any voting power. And so behind all that is a social media platform struggling to come through, maybe it will, maybe it won't. It has huge potential but too many problems ATM and they won't be fixed soon for sure.

yeah i am using it and gonna use steemit in future because instead of money steemit gives me knowledge on various topic like crypto currency investment, travel guides and much more.

No, thats why i don't write shit really on my facebook.
Its funny because i know i could make money with my own personal blog or selling some peice of shit chinese plastic online. I write on steemit because i believe that this could be what social media has been missing. Through our greed ws come together. Or it may be full of spam shit and go the way of the dino.
