However, I have figured that it doesn't matter what it says on google, because somewhere, I've also seen that "quality is in the eye of the beholder", and that doesn't seem to be a good sentence to use whenever you're trying to describe "quality content" on STEEM.

Oh! @hitmeasap. ¿Does that means that you are now becoming into a "shit content" agnostic, or furious skeptic or just plain atheist here?

Haha, just click here and read and consume the whole darn thing. And after the whole blue pill test, let's see if your current religious beliefs still survive. };)

Cheers!!

Then, no agnosticism, or furious skepticism nor you've become on a plain atheist here yet?

¡Shit! ¿Are you implying that you are still a devout believer of Quality Content? Hahahaha

Btw, ¿did you consume my blue pill? };)

Haha, this feels like a trick question.

Let's say this, I do believe that content (of whatever quality) is our "salvation". I don't mean that Actifit posts or memes for instance are bad or low quality in that sense. If we truly want all those Facebook and Instagram users to join and use STEEM, I also think that we need to reward them for the content they chose to share, no matter our personal opinions of what high/low quality is. I personally don't upvote Actifit posts etc, but I still don't consider them to be bad and I don't define them as piss-poor quality. I know Actifit is great and does many good things for tons of people.

However, the main reason for people to leave Steem is due to the lack of rewards. It's not about support in the sense of comments, education or encouragement. It's about money. People join STEEM to earn money. Often due to false advertising. When people realize that money comes only after tons of effort, hard work and countless hours of engagement, most of them leave within minutes.

We need to change the mindset, not only the mindset of the newcomers, but also on the existing users. You can't self-vote 100%, buy your way to the top of the trending, grow your account rapidly and expect STEEM to flourish. You need to focus on others before you can expect any form of real growth. The only growth you'll see before you focus on others, is the growth of your own account. In terms of STEEM.

But how fun is it to have 200K Steem when the price is going down? I'd rather have 10K Steem and see the price of STEEM go to $50 than to have 200K and see the price at $0,10.
