I'm sure I don't qualify as a standard user of social media. But even if all the whales fell into that category and they curated 24 hours a day, a lot of people still won't make money if the requirement is to write great, wholly original articles in English. If you can write an article like that, I fully believe that you will get rewarded by Steemit now. But I think Steemit needs to do more than that, to capture a really big audience. At the very least, it's got to be competitive in the back-and-forth type of conversations that occur daily on existing social media platforms.
