I'm with you. It can be frustrating. I work hard on my content and read a lot of other posts and leave thoughtful comments. I do get the sense that something is going to shift on here, though - and for the better. I think that as there are more whales who got there by working for it like we are doing (as opposed to buying in), there will be more thought and consideration going into upvotes. Not to mention less bullshit flagging.
