Hi @quillfire
And so, Steemit slowly dies.
Steemit only dies in eyes of those who are interested in monetary rewards. It's still the best platform to build influence within crypto space out there.
Plus communities here and high level of engagement are the reason why this platform will not die anytime soon. There is simply nothing better that could replace Steemit and push it into "shadows".
What is the only thing that sets Steemit apart from the multitude of other competing social media platforms ... and hence, the magnet that attracts new users? Compensation for Content.
Absolutely not.
Steemit allows me to target audience better than any platform out there. Mostly because I can scan STEEM blockchain and easily find content creators that are valuable for me.
More and more people and businesses seem to slowly realize that this is the only platform (currently) out there which still enjoys good traffic and is allowing people to engage with each other.
Those who are here because of "compensation" and rewards will never last very long.
Yours
Piotr
