I have been Steeming for over 10 months now and I took a much needed break as I was doing 6 to 8 hours a day of Steeming and somehow I was still in not attracting the right kind of audience for my content.
Part of it is because my content is all over the place and I write what I want and not really have a niche that I do well. The one thing that i did well whcih was engagement and commenting has dropped significantly as I felt burn out.
I have to say that Steem attracts the most diverse set of people and creatvity here,. You have writers of fiction, video creators, musicians and artists, painters and poets that no other platform comes close to it and yet we don;t have people shouting in the roof tops and in fact we are losing a lot of them with Steem going to a dollar in value,
I had high hopes for Steem and I was here with over 9k comments done, built communities, created programs and activities and even onboarded a lot of people, In one point I was also starting a charity project when everything came crashing down for me. Not because of the price but I lost my motivation to Steem.
I still occasionally write but more of just an outlet now instead of being a cheerleader for Steem, I am hoping that this time off I am doing will help me find my way back and stee steem like I did when I first started.
Hopefully Hivemind and Communities will breathe new life for me.,
Greetings, @maverickinvictus, nice to "meet" you here on Steemit.
Your comments resonate with me. I am also wildly diverse in my interests and what I post about, and thus feel that--though I've been on Steemit for two years, and quite active--I seem to have substantially lost any traction I may once have had. I don't have a particular, regular niche to attract a specific group or community.
Nevertheless, I intend to "Steem on," having high hopes for the future of this platform. Eventually, "my people" will all find me and value what I write. I wish the same for you. ;)
Thank you creatr and although I have slowed down I have not completely left Steem. I still post a couple of articles a week. I still go through my feed and comment on some interesting posts that I see and I sometimes drop by Discord in some of the communities that I am in to ask how folks are.
I still have a lot of high hopes for Steem too and with the different condensers that Steem has from the likes of dtube, Dlive, dsounds, utopian, steempress there is something for everyone to do.

In my opinion now is a good time to power down and sell some steem. You could probably spend a fraction of that steem to buy the same amount of SP but deligated to you for 90 days. I think that is a good strategy because either steemit or my interest in steemit will be over in 90 days. Btw will be following you.
