RE: Update: Posts I'm Working On & A Few Words For My Supporters
I hear you on the drop in quality. Drives me bananas, and I keep thinking - maybe I should post a meme or a pretty quote with NO SOURCE and get a big vote? But I can't bring myself to do it - hence, Steemit is more time consuming for me than it could be. I appreciate others who take the time to write quality, so why wouldn't I? And it infuriates me that some who write poor content - or only post memes/photos that aren't their own - are supported in communities here. What's that all about? I don't get it.
Have a good week too. x
Hey @riverflows thank you for the comment. Yes it's really frustrating, I spend a LOT of time on my posts and although I have no expectation that I'm owed anything when you see some earning more from a "meme or a pretty quote with NO SOURCE" .. it can be a bitter pill to swallow. That said (and as you've alluded to) I refuse to define myself by the lowest denominator so I'm going to continue to work hard, carve out my own path and do things my own way. I guess for some it's a microcosm of life .. in that it's not always what you know but who you know.
Like you say, I really appreciate the effort other people put in and I generally feel that over time a sustained effort will elicit results. Thank you for stopping by my friend and I hope you enjoy a really good week/weekend.
Love to you also. I'm not so much bitter as bemused and indignant! I think you're right though in this case - perhaps it's who you know ;)
I do enjoy the writing and communicating, and will take solace in the fact I think I do a decent job and am doing Steemit proud enough 💚😘
