RE: Quit any Expectations on Steem
The community is fantastic, good luck man. ;)
I really believe in that or maybe naively want to believe in that (or generally that "people are good at the core"). I think a perspective goes a long way, if you look for negative, you will find it, but same with positive.
I mean you can look at it from many different perspectives, and for someone it's their livelihood (like the example you provide) and it becomes work and money play a bigger role, but even then I think it comes down to the intentions. If you treat it as a business, shady business practices might get you a quick dollar, but lose you all your customers in a long run very soon, that's just as true in real world.
I appreciate your kind wishes, man, I think I already found a whole lot on here that puts a sparkle in my eye :)
You will be able to find so many amazing humans here, that will simply blow your mind. It's the perfect place and time to be, great people and the possibility of getting rewarded for engaging with them. Are you part of any discord servers? You should join some.
You give such a great example with the business comparison, I know a guy that joined around the same time as I did and he treated everything as a business while applying shady business practices that got him some huge bucks back then but now, that the prices are enormous, he's not making much anymore.
I'm glad you feel that way. :)
