Very valid points and the reply made by tarindel is along the lines of what I was thinking. Steemit and steem in it's self is a very geek-central 'thing' and it's going to first be inhabited by the culture which surrounds it but that said, & provided development keeps pushing forward to widen the bridge then I see Steemit taking off in a big way. This thing is still in it's infancy and stuff needs to be figured out and I am confident it will be. I can't say I agree with some of your suggestions as far as the segregation of topics and so-forth but I think ultimately what is going to happen is people will eventually fall into their own niches naturally and we will begin to see a much more broad spectrum of content. I was actually thinking of writing a post on this matter myself very soon and I'm probably going to do it. It was a great post and the points you bring up are very valid. I think all we can do right now is see where it goes and help it along the way as seems to be the overall message of your post from the very beginning.

How do people fall into their niches naturally when you land on the page and see a list of irrelevant topics. Keep in mind that new users aren't going to be as diligent as you'd think. Most users spend very little time on a new site or service before moving on if they don't find what they like/want. This issue is no different from any service/startup/software, etc.

You put in the work and time..you get paid! How awesome is that? This is the difference. Yes, the payouts do seem crazy, but that is the way it is. I signed up back in May and didn't put the work in. This cost me in earnings, all my fault. I had the same opportunity but didn't put the work in. So, now i can't be mad because smooth is voting himself a $217 reward . I will say this, when I initially came on board and made some post, I felt like it wasn't a fair system. Looking back, I didn't put the time in to understand how to maximize this opportunity. I unfairly judged the community and the platform my first time around. Now I'm putting the work in to make money.

@instructor2121, I think you mis-interpreted what was being said. No one is complaining here about the time spent and payouts.
