Well, after a 2.5 hour flight and another 1.5 hour dive I am home from Arizona. For those that followed along, thanks!
I am trying to figure out if posting daily is really worth the time and I am leaning towards giving up on STEEM. Don't get me wrong, I love you! It's just so obvious that the last fork really fucked the shit outta this platform for the blue-collar bloggers.
I'd love to discuss it with one of the five people left here that post daily.
The struggle is real. There used to be days when I would stress about getting a post out, but I don't really care now. I've posted a few musings that I've been... well, musing about. Other than that, I don't really care. The people are still cool, but Steem sucks. Newsteem sucks even more. It's hard to be excited about something when it's causing so many of your friends so much grief.
I know there will be some who say the situation has changed and we have to adapt, but is it really worth our time? I was considering making my first Steem purchase from fiat, but I don't know it will go back up. I could be wrong and time will tell, but when the dollars are flowing out of fiat an into anything else, how likely is it that Steem will be one of those assets?
I love your musings @themanwithnoname! I also agree about the new fork, it has fucked STEEM beyond repair. I do like most of the people here and it is fun interacting with folks but there are so few left and you are right, it is sad and upsetting to see friends getting hurt. I'm pretty sure the end is neigh.
:(

If you take a look at by account you will see we are both of the same thought. With the new little one my time is even more precious and the hit on payments as well as New steem being a circle jerk of pure hypocrites makes it an easier choice.
I still want to post but they just have broken my enthusiasm.

Well... I will miss your daily posts, but obviously don’t daily post either.
I wouldn’t call my lack of posting giving up on steem. Maybe it’s more being realistic about the time investment vs lack of reward? Or more having nothing to say every day? I don’t know... 🤣😂🤣 #shitcomment
I just can't figure out why whales would do this??? If they wipe us out, and the price of Steem goes down more, how do they profit??
Don't they realize that they are killing the platform that they are using to profit from?
This would be like killing the goose that laid the Golden egg.....
It feels like a death rattle and they are just grabbing what they can before it all goes away.
Glad you made it home safe and sound.
Lucky for you, I'm one of the five people left around here you can discuss things with! 🤣😂🤣

Home sweet home bro. Yep its not easy. But with the hammer you still get a decent ROI.
I know what you mean but what's the point of good ROI when the price of STEEM keeps dropping? I still want to believe it will recover but I know it won't. FUCK!

I really understand also @summertooth, I post my Actifit daily, and I want to build my @steemsilvergold post's for the weekend.
Everyone is here on the weekend......I want to share....time is so precious....Family is also!!😀
This really does suck, Actifit and Steemsilvergold for me are the only place I really fit in....
I'm hanging on..........
So glad you are home, and I wish you the best.....I hope you stay!
Cheers
Thanks for the kind words. I'm still here for now and I enjoy the interaction but more and more I am feeling the opposite...

The downvoting and the steem price is killing us.
It's just ridiculous @goldrooster. It's almost like someone is running it into the ground on purpose and it's a real bummer.
I post daily. Twice.
