Why am I writing? It's a good question. I don't see myself as someone who would appeal to the mainstream. I'm probably just reaching out to make a few connections with like minds and build a bit of a network. Getting fame and crypto in the pocket might be nice but they aren't the main motivations and probably aren't realistic goals for someone like me anyway.
As for curation initiatives. Well I am a bit skeptical about whether they even exist or if they are an endangered species bordering extinction. I certainly don't hold my breath hoping to be discovered by @curie or anything like that as I'd only end up disappointed. I've seen many others make that mistake.
