Exactly! Instead of wasting my time on forums and blog, I now follow a bunch of interesting people on Steemit and actually make money while interacting with them. 
I do earn pennies still but it's better than nothing.
Best thing about Steemit is that it's kind of similar to Reddit in the sense that there are topics for every one, be it cryptocurrency, phyotography, sports, etc...

You've earned a new follower!

Cheers!
