I think that mostly people here started their bitcoin journey by using faucets. It's good thing to start, especially for unskilled newbies, they become familiar with bitcoin and start to understand how everything works and also get their first btc.
I don't see nothing bad that people still using faucets. It's hard to earn bigger money from faucets, but if you have some free time, i think it's better to claim some satoshi from faucet instead of wasting time on social networks or playing phone games. And if faucet user lives in poor country, every earned dollar really matters, so faucets can help.
I'm still using faucets, because with help of my referrals, I'm getting decent earnings, why I should stop?
if I have many referrals will be different story, I just think as a new to know bitcoin. Most likely will think the same with me that this is a waste of time and boring, most modern people prefer to earn money easily and much more
There aren't many faucet users anymore and those who still use it prefer traditional faucets like FreeBitco.in, because there you still have some chance to earn better prizes. Everyone has a luck day and today may be yours, so why not give it a try? You just need to press the "Roll" button and if you are lucky enough you can earn $200... It's like a free lottery every hour, what worth much more than normal lotteries.
Another sites have funny games which people like to play and earn some satoshis. Default faucets are being used for vacant people that have nothing more to do, they may think it's fun or the small earnings from faucets can worth on their countries.
not every day we have the luck to get big prizes, even for months it can be realized. I agree with you if the small reward of the faucet can worth on some countries , thank for sharing
