RE: The Robin on the Windowsill

in The Ink Welllast year

It seems to be the trend now as AI moves in. I'm well in SA thanks, though not so well on Hive, as my posts don't get upvotes any more. I have been here for five years and did much better years ago. Now it seems I'm shadow banned or whatever the Hive equivalent is. I put in more images and effort but get five upvotes and less than 1Hive payout for a post. To me the Hive seems broken or steered by whales against my type of Vedanta philosophy posts. What is actually going on here on Hive?

I don't understand either. Perhaps the community are interested in personal stories over philosophy? That's a shame of course. It's a very niche audience I guess, Vedanta? Sorry to hear. I don't do well when I post a creative story (only occasionally) in the Ink Well, but I try to write just what I love, so if you don't love it, don't write it xxxx

Thanks River, just hearing your objective opinion helps me to process the situation. You are correct that it is a niche subject. I am rising above potential profit and since the subject is valuable to me, I'll carry on regardless. That said, perhaps I should focus on more personalized content, rather than the abstract philosophy, as you suggest.
