I don't think it's all about paying attention to important information. First, it's about reading the post. As long as the post is read, one surely would come across the captivating details. Sometimes it's not being lackadaisical, it's about blending one's online and offline job, it could be frustrating that engagement becomes too hard
I used to work 12 hours daily and still make out time to engage and create content. At the end of the day it all boils down to the individual and what they prioritise. Also paying attention is synonymous with reading, I don't see how they differ. If one isn't paying attention they are either not reading important updates or skimping through posts.
And sometimes it's not the vote weight that pulls people, my elder brother left hive because a community he engage in doesn't give feedback on his story even though he was making some dollars
I have addressed this severally, no one really owes anymore views, comments, or upvotes. This is why we create communities to bring people with similar interests together to make this whole process of engaging easy.
It doesn't matter how good a post is, people won't engage with it if they don't see the value in engaging. Even as a creator here for the past 4 years, there are days I don't get comments. I still make effort to engage and hope it is reciprocated.
I appreciate everyone who take out time to read and participate. I understand we all have our individual lives and struggles, and I understand that we all cannot give our 100%. For those who can contribute in any capacity I am willing to work with them. There is no room for excuses anymore. Other communities are achieving great things. We need all need to do better.
I stand with your final words..... "We all need to do better"
Thanks
