Blogging - a selfless hobby?

Somehow the hype surrounding social media, blogging and influencers is reminiscent of 1999: people blog until the skin cracks, Online-Networks are springing up and everyone wants to join.

And it's not just since today that I've been asking myself when this euphoria will be over, because: all the many people are blogging People just for the joy of blogging?
