I've interviewed 4 of my friends who joined then left Steemit for good. Here were their reasons: 1. Unfair reward system 2. Got a high-paying job, so no time. 3. The posts were all sports, and other crap 4. Dollar Vigilante, a known scam artist is making bank on Steemit....Steemit feels scammy for this reason.

The answer to 1, 3, and 4 is don't play the comparison game. The trending list is usually a good way to find new accounts to follow. With enough good posters you can then look at the personal feed more and more. This is a problem that can be somewhat addressed in user interface but it's also going to be a perpetual filter on types of people that play the comparison game and get overly upset at the perception of unfairness.
