I found old description of steemit community on https://slo-tech.com:

In particular, the community for steemit is quite strange. It is a mixture of offended redditors, people who have invested heavily in projects in all VOAT users who are twice offended Redditors.
There is a 100% self-confident troll brigade that will sell you what you want, just to get a refunded investment.

Its' in slovenia language in original, but I translate it.
But I think communtity changed since September 2016.

But some of the remnants of the former glory are still visible (sarcasm).

Nice goats :)
