I'm equating everything you are saying to the challenges we are facing at Ecency right now.
All of us are working hard to get more Proposal votes to stay ahead of the Return Proposal. We are taking care of ourselves and are trying to make the World of Hive a better place. Ecency has goals to continue growing on Hive, but we need funds for our devs to keep improving and adding new features.
Your Proposal vote would give us a much needed cushion to have the funds to keep building.
