Great post! Agreed! I think one of the reasons that this is starting to happen more now than ever on Steemit is that Steemit is different than other social media platforms in a very big way. And this is not Facebook or instagram where people do follow for follow and make meaningless comments, this is a platform built on the quality of content, including comments. So I feel like part of what's happening is that people feel that they can bring over these habits from other social media platforms in a setting where it doesn't make sense and won't be supported.
