I never miss it, to be honest. Upvotes are worth more than ads. A lot more.

But ads would increment earnings a lot. And make people more and more interested in joining the community. Never demonize adverts.

Steemit naturally pays marketers, it's interesting because theres a completely new way to stockpile or store influence in the Steem power token

I think some people put adds in their posts. There is no censorship on here short of flagging.

But I mean more powerful and far reaching adverts in the main page, in each subtopic main page etc...

I think Marketers can see the advantage of putting their money into a platform as a "loan" almost, except that in return for loading up steem power, only they're getting the outreach, clients, leads and customers without PAYING overhead.
