This resonates with me so well. There is a combination of factors I think. I have noticed a significant drop in interaction on my posts which comes from so many people having quit on steemit but also my own motivation has dropped.
It's difficult to keep the pace I have been for the past year and you start to feel burnout. And then on top of that the price of steem has been under a dollar now for months.. this all add up and people leave in droves.
but you can't help but look at your own posts and wonder 'why is no one commenting? is it me? what did i do?' and that can be very self destructive.
There's truth in what you are saying. Hopefully we recover from all of this. It's disheartening, but yeah, overthinking it won't help either. Thanks for stopping by! :)
For sure, it's not the first dip steem has had and those that toughed it out last time have done quite well. Just need to persevere :)
