Fantastic write, Mineopoly:)
I do my best not to label and not to accept labels ... even if they are positive. Labels limit and I have no desire to be limited or to limit another. When I was younger, just like everyone else, I was more prone to this subtle abuse. But these days how I see myself or another is evolving.
Deep comments take the longest time to reply to @prydefoltz. I know you give your heart to the poetry contest and to creating community in steemusa and in the poetry competition. As a whole I wonder what Steemit is evolving into...
It will evolve into many things, mineopoly. All of them more or less true. My advice ... keep your filter high and stay off the trending page. Although, it is at the forefront, it is not indicative of the platform as a whole. I follow other artists, poets, writers and photographers. For me steemit is fully of beauty and meaning, rewarding in many ways. No need to be discouraged; you just have to turn the channel:):):)
Yes. I have done a lot of filtering in my feed and I'm joyful and excited when I see beautiful people. You are right.
