Yeah, I know what you mean. The people that are here are early adopters. We are getting here before most people. A lot of users are working hard to recruit communities of like minded individuals. Photography and Art have done pretty well as examples. There is a 'chicken and egg' problem though for some of the smaller niche communities like AI.
The communities feature that is being added later this year should hopefully help with that. It will provide a better framework for getting groups of like-minded people together so they can share posts and interact within smaller, more specific groups.
The biggest problem I am seeing with Steemit is the reward for posting. It's causing a lot of people to post content that they are not passionate about. This market has a long way to go to become diverse and not just get people that are looking for easy money or blackchain enthusiasts .

The type of content that gets rewarded is entirely up to the community of voters. Hopefully over time as more people join, the types of content that gets rewarded will diversify.

Today is my first day on steemit. Thanks for the tips @timcliff . Do you think @steemit will monetize with ad's in the future? It took @facebook a few years to monetize its site with ad's. The best thing about steemit is users make money for their own content. If we own our content, we should also decide if we want ad's to be published alongside our content.

I don't know the answer to that. That's an interesting perspective to consider though.
