RE: Do we REALLY Need "Yet Another Post About Steemit?" Well, Perhaps We DO...
I like what you are saying here - showcasing care and regard for steemit - also with many new users daily it is cool to see more people writing about such things as there is updates all the time...and when new posts come out it keeps things fresh for new users.
Real cool analogy and observation with regards to the fact not many people are writing about facebook on facebook.
Writing about a topic you are interested in helps with substantiating and integrating understanding. So the fact that writing about steemit is such a popular topic - really does show the growth in community here and education about what it is we have here with steemit, which, really is something extraordinary!
re'Steem'D
Thanks @worldclassplayer-- in some sense, my (relatively few) Steemit posts are "selfishly motivated."
If I can post something that helps someone else "do better" or "understand," then they have a better experience here, so they are more likely to go elsewhere and say "Steemit is cool!" to other people, so the community grows... as a result of which the value of my Steem goes up...
In a sense, it's the core of a "gift economy;" our gain comes from being "of service" to others... a strange kind of self-motivated selflessness.
