Agreed. The resilience of the platform and its users are being tested. I hope originality gets appreciation. Steem is on a roll. It's still in beta but the model is unique and lucrative to attract a lot of crowd and curating the posts from an ever-flowing crowd is difficult and it becomes difficult to get noticed for one's work. I guess it's a matter of time and a stroke of luck. Whatever it is, we need to keep up the grind.
