• (Newcomers) don't get enough upvotes
• Bid bot abuse
• To much spam
• Good content doesn't get enough upvotes

I'm relatively new to steem so i don't know the platform as well as some of the veteran users but the initial issues I have found are around new users and good content not getting enough votes. It seems like if you don't use bots you don't get upvoted enough to make it worth your while.Its frustrating to spend time writing content you hope people will find engaging, I am not the worlds greatest writer or anything but i do try to put some effort in to my posts and often get no upvotes and then a casual scroll down the posts shows me people posting pictures of their cats and Shit like that getting $20. There does seem to be an enormous amount of spam. I'm hoping that if i persevere this will change.
