To be honest I was first hesitant about the UA project but I really do think that it actually could work.
Yes the common interest we all have is to grow our account! Trying to connect to people, trying to get noticed, hoping on an upvote from a bigger account.
The problem I do also see that it is getting harder and harder to get an upvote on a comment. For sure if you are commenting on smaller accounts, and I can't blame them. With the current value of Steem it would kill their voting power if they want to give an upvote above the threshold!
This of course decreases the willingness of some people to interact!

With the UA project these accounts could grow faster to a SP where they could give upvotes!

But still we (all) need to do it! We need to interact, we need to write decent quality posts, we need to ...!

Thanks for steem-ua @scipio!
Cheers,
Peter
