When Steemit grow, and it will, the categories will be more clearly displayed. This will lead to a better distribution of the attention and it will cease to be a "frontpage of the internet" so to say :-) Im agree with the poster, content and consistency should be the way to go.
The incentives are more than enough, and the sense of a sort of "learning center" is developing very quickly. Im definitely bullish overall. For starters, i will try to keep on writing, a post per day! Regards
