There are two points of view on this. You thoroughly explained the first viewpoint.

However, there is an alternative. While most of us are aware, at least to some degree, what is going on here, newer people will not. Thus, posts about Leofinance (and by extension Hive) seem like we are just "talking to ourselves". That said, we never know who will be reading these things.

Another aspect to this in my opinion is the excitement that is taking place. Many have been "walled" off on Hive without the opportunity to engage in comments and engagement. For now, most are expressing that.

Finally, it is simply a numbers game. We have an excess, in terms of percentage, of people who are long time people on Hive. Few, thus far, are outsiders. It will take drawing those in to change the type of content we see.

For example, look at the number of posts related to crypto as compared to finance in general. We see very few non crypto topics on here. Certainly, there is nothing wrong with that, since we can cater to a strong market with crypto.

In my view, it is better to get people involved as opposed to many not posting. The reality is few know a great deal about finance, at least to post about it. So sharing their excitement and experience, even if it is only about Leofinance, is better than nothing.

Are some doing it for rewards? Perhaps. But that too will fade over time if I had to guess.
