RE: Steemit: A Mind in Whirlwind
At the same time, I am in awe of how you presented the topic so subtly, deeply, and thoughtfully.
I'm glad you understood it that way. After reading the comments, I realized that it might have come across as a cry for help or desperation, as if I were feeling unfavored and constantly comparing myself. When quoting something, you need to provide examples, and I thought, why not speak from my perspective? I assure you that this was not the sole purpose of my post. I simply felt that things were becoming too stagnant, perhaps even monotonous. Also, I didn’t focus on just one topic; I touched on many things. But for some reason, it seems to have been interpreted as complaining. It's really just my observations on how authors (can) sometimes get demotivated.
I’ve also been reflecting on how some topics seem to be favored, while lengthy posts filled with stats often steal the spotlight. Most importantly, I've noticed that many regular authors have stopped putting much effort into their blogs. These posts, by virtue of being trending and receiving high votes, automatically become the benchmark. But should it really be this way?
I think I should stop now. I have already said a little too much ;))
I agree with your post and do not consider it a complaint at all 😀. It just so happens that when it comes to regular bloggers and high rewards, it inevitably leads us to mention the Steemit team. 🙂
