What do you guys do with these cards I seem to randomly get?

I’ve sold like 3 to get 18 cents or so, but this seems to be really inefficient when it comes to time.

If you have no interest in making them into a collection - just sell it or gift it to friends who want it.
Probably you 'get more' out of them if you give them away. They will be more happy than you are with 18 cents :D.

Do people actually care about collecting these cards? Every time I've sold them, it's been for pennies.

I did care in the past. Probably this post will make me create couple more badges to reach lvl 40 (I'm lvl 37 currently), and with that booster pack boost (probably 1% altogether) I will just sell all of mine.

I did that in the past too, just to boost my Steam Level. But its kind of waste of money, because I don't benefit from the benefits its providing me anyway. One can already add 250 friends and upgrading adds 5 more slots per lvl. With every 10 lvl more showcases can be added to your profile (but mine is private anyway). I stopped at Lvl 69 because I realized it makes no sense (but it kept going up on its own).

Here is a nice post I found about Steam Profile Levels: https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/30/691998095298452123/
