This is not news for many. It was suggested by many affluent steemians. It has been implemented to generate more revenues to steemit.
Believe or not #steemit is the front runner for everything steem.
We may have other means to interact with the blockchain, it remains the corridor for newbies to posts.
Fortunately, I use #actifit, #appics, #partiko, #esteem desktop, #busy.org to post.
Each gives you a different flavor to post.
Not to forget you may get upvotes as well from some.
I used them all.
If you have an account to log into #steem you will not see the adds.
Be happy cause they will clog your experience on #steem.
The only way to see them, log out and be on steemit.com
So happy we are exempt and more gladly if you do not use steemit, don't worry you may never see them.
They are for outsiders getting to know #steem
I have seen many more and they are everywhere.
I am happy steemit did their best to generate more revenues from the adds.
Keep on postin'
