It's almost coming up to four years for me in a few months.
And I took the longer route and a few months pass before I made my first post and since then averaged a post a week.
With my busy offline life I too often rob time from my sleep to write most posts but I prefer to manually curate as I ended up as a curator/Moderator in the Ladies of Hive community.
Lol! I did the free Dogecoin thing too and I ended up with a crypto portfolio more than ten times the value of my Hive and Hive Engine account put together. So I've cashed in about 25% 30% of it and went shopping as described on my last two posts of three or four.
So, Congrats @ladybug146 on four years!
And the Dogecoin lottery.
I'm the same, I never cast an auto-vote and wouldn't even know how. I like manual curation. When I'm really busy I might vote more randomly but that's only when I'm working or on vacay and visiting. I try to keep my tiny vote whole so I only have to find 10, there is more I want to vote than I can.
Nice, I'm glad you got to cash in and have some fun, We all need a little shopping spree from time to time! I thought about cashing out doge at 70 cents but for whatever reason I just didn't. I didn't do it for 3 years like the bitcoin faucets and now I kind wish I did, I would have like 3 times more, I used to get 3 to 4 doge every time I collected, they added up fast and I have a good pile of them. I think PM's are then only thing I would have bought with them but I'm trying to keep crypto and metals as separate I don't want to trade one for the other sorta deal. I prefer using my wages as my savings loose value if in fiat.
4 years is a long time isn't it! Hopefully you will be around for another 4 too! xox
