I scrolled recently my VK feed (it's a "Russian Facebook") and got stucked by the amount of pictures I'm forced to perceive.
Actually, my mind doesn't need so many imagies. And I even don't have a choice if to watch them or not. Because bright pics and ads are everywhere.
News in social webs like VK and Facebook also based on a recognition principle, so you read what you already read and this goes on and on to keep you on a site.
Then I watched my Steemit feed and found these posts:
The Middle Age Black Death
by @juvyjabian
Another Rainy day in Bucharest
by @jwolf
Saturday for School..! Children working in art
by @ahlawat
Writing Fiction a novel - Exclusive for Steemit - Diamonds and Deviants 15
by @michelle.gent
Reading these posts (or at least scrolling through them) gives me more useful info and what's more important - more true information.
These authors are independent and they are interested in making a better content.
On Steemit I can see people's opinions, photos, stories from different places of the world without any "news" or cencorship filter. That's great! Why to watch a TV weather forecast (which is always the same) when I can look at the weather from people cameras and text they're blogging?
Furthermore, I see here more text and I read more. It's more useful for my brain functioning than clicking public pages with pics.
Thank you for reading!

You said it my friend.. actually everyone is bored and fed up with the selfies and live videos and unuseful post from there..am new here and I really enjoying the steemit platform from which we can learn, grab different cultures and lots of other informations..
You completely understand the point, Steemit is a way to save our brains)
nice steemit
Yeap)
People who use social media to have fun are borderline depressed because they have no goals or purpose in their life.
Wasting time with that shit for no gain is just plain retarded.
I resteemed this post because people need to hear your perspective.
Totally agree with you!
You are right steemit is different for all social medias i like your good information
