You have been invited here as you interacted with my Threads/Posts yesterday.
Rules for this giveaway are rather easy. Whoever comments on my posts, gets invited until self-exclusion. To be excluded don't interact, I will not mention you in the next post. Rejoin with a comment on any post/thread topic/dBuzz.
The maximum allowed number of beneficiaries on Peakd and Hive.Blog is only 8, so I will be using Ecency instead because it allows more people to be added if necessary. For the start, I will try not to shred the percentage too low because it doesn't serve much use and fixed giveaway items are more valuable at this point anyways.
Invites will share post author's rewards and one portion will be liquified with reward app and used to buy tokens for future giveaways. All participants will receive upvotes, giveaway items, and Ecency points.
I will do my best to avoid rewarding spam, or muted, blocked, or blacklisted users.
Invites/ beneficiaries for today are:
@emaxisonline - pasta with cheese thread, always worthy of a mention
@sammyhive - multiple comments, thank you for all the insights
@hiveborgminer - multiple comments ( thanks for the Wine!)
@anomadsoul - on Nobody Inn thread, thanks for the heads up
The reward for each ( delivered before this post publish time): upvotes, 20 Ecency points, 30 DEC and 20% of this post. That is $0.06 fixed + whatever 20% this post makes.
Today's topics will be more normal than what we had yesterday and I will try to adjust it to the general interests so that everyone can comment on whatever you like.
Food!!!
I like this topic a lot. And I like to cook. We don't have leftovers.
I was born intolerant to lectin and it wreaked havoc to my health until we finally recently found out what was wrong. I never even heard about it. My daughter has the same plus other difficulties probably also caused with it, and my husband partially opted for our diet ( he eats bread), because it works better for him. We are on that diet for almost 2 years, and health has never been better.
The first couple of months my cooking was awful, and because of the change, I was sick for 3 months. Next 6 months everything hurt until body rebuilt itself back on.
Human species don't have enzymes to manage lectin at all, so it causes metabolic issues to everyone to a different degree. Usually when we get old. If you wonder why there are so many allergies and intolerances in modern times, that's because we cultivate advanced plant food that has more of it. Lectin content is in many plants, in many forms, and in the majority can be destroyed by cooking and pickling. So, it is not a big deal. But, sadly the type that is resistant to the treatments is in the grains ( all of them) and soy.
So, because of that, I use alternatives. For example, instead of the normal wheat or corn, I use millet and sorghum mixed with psyllium. Instead of wheat pasta, I use chickpea pasta ( I hate it, my kid loves it). Chickpeas and beans have lectin, but when cooked enough, it is gone. When I prepare beans just for the case, and it is better that way for digestion, I use huge white beans, leave them overnight to soak in salt water, and remove peels the next day before cooking. It is the whole ordeal but it is worth it.
Some alternative website
I will take a recommendation and revive my accounts on other websites, and repost some of my edited content there.These other website offer monetizations of some sort, but they don't include ReadCash or Publish0x, reasons why I explained in previous post.
Websites and social media which I will use in combination, are: Medium and LinkedIn, KoFi and Mastodon, Buymeacoffe and MemoCash, Blogstack and Iris on Nostr, PostNews and Polywork, Substack with Notes, and Minds. So, it is seven combinations, will see which one works the best for feedback and monetization.
A word about monetization, besides Medium, others are on tips. Neither is stake-based. I will report on the results at the end of the week.
Earnings plummeting? Well, yes, but not only for me
I said in one of my previous posts that last few weeks my earnings plummeted on a nosedive, but I am not the only one. I looked around and found out that other users have a similar drop. So, maybe it is just the way it is.
Other types of writing for better income?
Fiction?
I mean if I am going to be rewarded once in a month with a measly 1HBD ( author), what's the point in spending hours upon hours on creative writing?
That form of writing uses far more time than this.
Then I will be better off creating ebooks and selling them online.
This is how it went for me:
May has none of my posts with earnings above 1HBD.
I was rewarded in April with 1.5HBD for Web3 adoption post by hkcuration and taskmaster4450le.
I was rewarded in March for Splinterlands preview tool and Splinterlands activity flipcards with 3.5 HBD by cervantes.
I have created it on Pranz and I have to update that because image urls are now different.
February has no posts above 1HBD in author rewards.
I was rewarded in January for fiction with 1.3 HBD by Curie and rocky1.
Before that, I was rewarded by Liketu with 1.1HBD on a photo post in OCTOBER.
The only user who consistently supports me is Zuerich, which gives me a stable 0.1-0.15HBD per article throughout the month, but that account never interacts with any of my posts. Neither does a majority of these groups which I mentioned. I get a comment from a robot. I don't even know if they read any of it.
Most of the websites which I mentioned are new, so I will focus on growing my following and exploring the possibilities. If you need a link to any of them, screenshots of their dashboards or tabs, or you are there, let me know.
That's all for today. Thanks for dropping in.
i like what i see here.
i recently discovered that bromide is added to a lot of flour which prevents iodine doing it's job. i also use chick-pea flour though, and Limetz, Spelt and Buckwheat. When i make (sour dough) bread i add fennugreek, turmeric and black pepper.

Some free Hive-engine tokens for you:
!PGM !PIZZA !LOL
They add too many things to the food and when I find anything I can't really understand or I don't know what it is I do not buy until doing some research. Basically avoiding any trash in a bag when shopping is the best practice.
I am satisfied with combination of millet and psyllium right now, it provides the best compared to the price. Millet comes from the home farm and I buy the other thing in the health shop.
Thank you a lot for the tokens and the comment.

I try easy-cook recipes that does not need oven. Recently, I had tried steamed goat leg, which takes a lot of marination time and cooking time as well. It was once of the best cuisine I had cooked after a long time.
New authors have always some problems in achieving content rewards, I have been here over a year and still I don't get compared to time and effort and quality.
There are certain countable users who gets repeated rewards, new authors are mostly dumped under a rubble. That's why I don't write LeoFinance content, because of low engagement.
You should try Alive Tribe, at least you can get some Alive tokens and they do a lot contest every week.
Goat leg sounds like an exciting thing to try.
Thank you for Alive Tribe recommendation, maybe I should rejoin them and see what new they have.
You are doing great. I am very happy and appreciate your effort too. Your input on Thread is outstanding and worthwhile
Thank you. I will try my best, if not then my average best :))))
You are welcome
I agree with you for the low income and engagement. I try to write long post and spend a lot of time to write them, but I don't really feel it is rewarded.
As you said, there's a lot of bots (won't criticize as I have one too), and engagement is low. Even when I try to engage on an interesting post, it is rare to have an answer. Or the answer does not really leave space for a discussion.
Maybe that's just the way it is. There are many communities, but it seems that the most and only really "bankable" subject is crypto/defi, here.
I also overdo my posts, and even if I know it is too long, I still post it. I tried writing short and down to a point, but it is not fun.
I don't think that crypto should entirely hog the scene, there are so many other nice things.
I haven't tried all the websites you mentioned except for ReadCash and PublishOx, maybe I will try to visit some of these sites. Thanks a lot for the heads up.
I think that your travel content may give you a huge advantage on some of them. I really think that you should take a look if it is useful for you.
Thanks a lot for the suggestions @aschatria. I will look into it.
