So like a lot of people that heard about SteemIt, I thought I should come here and post the best of what I've written, and shot (videos/vlogs) to see if good content would be appreciated.
I've seen and upvoted lots of great content posted by others that have thought they'd also come here and see if they could make it.
But then you check out the steem it home page, and you see some random post about Yoga Positions that everyone knows, or a meme someone didn't even create, that gets just 80 up votes, and which has earned over $600...
Why? because there's a mafia of big whales that upvote them.
If you don't know these big whales, or you're not famous, my conclusion is that you're wasting your time on steemit.
And they're just getting a bunch of us to come and post content here for free to pump their coin value.
Now prove me wrong.
