RE: The End Of The Daily Pick Of Hidden Gems (featuring @dragonslayer109 as author)
@donkeypong thank you for your reply. I love and support your project a lot. The daily pick has come under fire due to you guys finding the posts and upvoting them making the posts no longer "hidden" according to haters. I am starting a new project that will hopefully be better than the daily pick as I will be moving away from promoting individual posts but rather an author to allow them to get more followers and get them seen thus allowing for all their future posts to get more value on them. SO it isnt really a stop to the hidden gems but more of an update to help people out better. I will be posting about it to as some people would like to see and understand how it will work. Project Curie didn't end my hidden gems but has directed it to something that could help out much more.
As a minnow, I appreciate what you all do for invisible content. My attitude since finding Steemit has been that we can only control our own output. Who sees it, who values it, who upvotes it... that's beyond my control. But even if no value is added to the platform, my simply being here, motivated to write on a daily basis, that creates value for me, individually! That's huge, and something I didn't have before. I also believe that consistent effort, the daily human action of writing and reading others' work, will pay off. How much and when, again, beyond my control. But I know it will.
