Exactly. Personally, I've seen people give up on steemit because their posts wasn't getting enough rewards. Sometimes it takes more than writing a post, sometimes, we have to read other people's post and give constructive comments so we can gain their attention.
People see this to be work and try to avoid it. That's why I want this community to be filled with people who understand the value of long term. People who have something valuable to share with the entire community. It could be an idea or a skill set you are willing to offer. That's what and how I want this community to look like.
