RE: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - JOIN ME IN MY STRIKE!
Whereas I can appreciate your frustration, I don't believe Steemit has anything to do with what rewards you get paid. When the price of Steem is low (like it has been much of this year) rewards decline, when the price is high, rewards can be substantial.
You are clearly someone who has been here since the early days, both with Steem at less than 0.07 USD and with Steem at 8.00 USD. Since the base code determines your rewards based on voting vests the only way the rewards pool structure could be different would be if a supermajority of the witnesses agreed to modify the code through a hardfork... and that's very unlikely to happen.
Let's remember that we're not "employees working for" Steemit, we're independent bloggers choosing to be part of a project that distributes rewards from a fixed pool of available resources. Which means, the more people are contributing content, the less share (relatively speaking) each contributor is likely to earn.
I'm just grateful to see the price of Steem tokens moving upwards again, because that means the value of those rewards will gradually rise, as well.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving such an interesting comment!
Yes, I used the wrong term but it was done on purpose.
Maybe, you can find the meaning if you read, https://steemit.com/hive-118409/@donatello/calling-all-steemit-artists-and-musicians-are-we-being-left-in-the-shadows.
Have a nice day!
