And yes, I often spend two hours on a post. In 2+ years, I think I managed to post four posts in one day twice. Mostly it's once daily, sometimes twice.

This. I guess you'd rather earn rewards on the articles you spent 2+ hours on, instead of a simple meme if you were to share that? - I know I would.

It's not that I hate memes or anything... It's just that a meme takes 10 seconds to share. Sure, it could take longer in case you came up with something original, but a written article would most likely take more time than any meme you could ever think of. I would like to see more rewards for that, than "less quality", but according to users here, memes are quality.

So, even though I probably shouldn't say this but, quality is in the eye of the beholder. Always have, always will. Some will reward my shitposts more than articles I spent + hours on and others will ignore my articles no matter the quality and no matter the subject.

Steem is strange and it's messed up, but it's also why I love it.

About cats... I don't know... I'm allergic. lol :D

I think one of the keys for me — when it comes to other people's posts/comments — is whether the post actually taught me something, or interested me in some way... or, at the very least, did the post tell me something about the author and what makes them tick.

And sure, Steem is messed up and weird... and I totally understand that not everyone will see it through the same lens of perception as I do, and that's cool, too...

I agree with you on that. That's why I ignore certain types of posts. You don't even have to call it low or high quality. It's just content. I like certain content more than I like others. That's basically all there is to it. As people often put labels on certain content, I sort of need to explain that the content I vote for is what I consider to be "high quality", but that's not entirely true. It's just content I like.
