I have personally also figured out that it's a lot more fruitful to use the platform to express yourself within blogging, commenting and voting. This way we mold and shape the platform to stand equal to that self-expression and -enjoyment rather than the "emptiness" existent within purely chasing the money and keeping our eyes on the price. Something we seem to miss is how our own interactions and expressions shape the world and communities we live in. So if we ourselves are not genuine, considerate and "real", then we can expect to receive the same in return from the world and community we create in our image. Thanks for this post nonameslefttouse
