It's all the advantages of Steem without mentioning/focusing on the rewards. :)

I participated on a site called Writeon which, sadly has since gone away. Writers posted material and the only reward was that other writers read it and commented. It improved my editing skills. Yes, I would love to profit by writing, but social media sites proves that connecting with others is a driving force for many individuals.

Artists mostly, we still haven't made the compilation post of onboarded users but I've resteemed some of their posts. We'll get this kickstarted very soon!
