Hah! Well we ARE awesome, what can we say? LOL. Yeah, I'm right there with you. Hard to put a finger on it but it is certainly a feeling. Looking at the trending feed is a certain no-no if one wants to keep a healthy perspective on contributing quality content. A bit more spam, a lot less attention from the followers. There's something to it. But yeah, head down and keeping the faith. Steemit needs folks like us.
