Tons of accounts will not be used unless this goes main stream. If you try and create an account with many big company names or catchy phrases they are all taken and none are being used . Seems like someone bought a bunch of accounts to hold onto.

The problem is a very high entry barrier for new steemians. They get frustrated and leave before they start to grow.
Some really good projects (minnowsupport project for example) are trying to solve this problem, but if the new guys don't find out that help exists, because they don't stay for long enough, it's really bad.
The grind in the beginning without investing a few hundred bucks is really hard. You get literally no viewers without a little starting help from invested money or support projects.
Very true and Iβm sure there are a lot that would invest into this but do not understand how. Itβs easy for us who know a little about this but for most they have no idea how to do it.
Yeah, and that is a whole other issue. I'm still learning things and honestly just started using bots a week or so ago. I've been on this site for over three months, but I really only just figured out bots...and I'm still not totally sure about how to maximize my gains from them.
That is probably another reason that retention here is so good - a lot of people get confused by all of the different elements of the site. From the nature of how payment works, to the difference between STEEM, SPD, and Steem Power, to bots, it really has a steep learning curve.
i agree loads of persons think its too complicated to use
Exactly right, and that is one reason I am not against using certain bots. I was at first - it seemed like a sort of cheating because it benefited those with money - but now I see it as a necessary tool for smaller users like myself to get big. As soon as you have at least a little SPD you can get at least minnowbooster to help you out. You just need a spark to light that fire.
Once you do that for a while, hopefully you get to a more self-sustaining point. It is a growing issue though.
