I think a lot depends on what mentality a person had when they joined here, be it right at the start, a year ago, or a month ago. If you came here with the free money sign flashing in your eyes, you’d be doomed to fail and have a lot of anxiety as you hold on to that mentality, because every hardfork makes it harder to get free internet moneys. But if you came in with the artist mentality, like I assume you and me did, with being excited about a place where you could share your art and get to know more interesting people, it’s a lot easier to handle all the turmoil in the platform and price.
Just keep steeming just keep steeming. I find it very important to just keep putting out what you enjoy, what ever it might be, cause the worst thing is to just stop. It’s too fucking quiet in here!
The mentality we share makes life a lot easier here. You're right about that. I just need to be careful and not burn out again. Having fun can be a lot of work.
It has been far too quiet. I'm not sure what can be done to improve that. I know it's bugging a few people, making them feel down and out. Some folks just needed a break and I don't blame them. Just have to go with the flow.
I can totally side with you on the too much of a good thing, gotta be careful with this. I took some time away too because of burning out. Well I did post but I wasn't actively engaged in the community for months and months, now I'm fully back.
I took it a little personally for a couple days for not getting the response I hoped for to my posts, but then I realised it's super quiet all around! It's just you, me and five other people here, like an awkward little company Christmas party.
I've been trying to improve the frequency of my outside appearances, making time to leave comments and stuff. I still need to improve there, plus respond here, plus I already started the art for the next post, plus curating at least, in creeps the burnout. It'll be tough keeping this place active when it feels like there's not enough time in the day. It's not impossible though.
This awkward party could probably use more alcohol. Looks like I'm having beer for lunch on a Wednesday again...
It's a hard balance to find, but the upside for it being so quiet in here is that it's easier to stay on top of everything.
I already opened a bottle of cheap red, cheers!
Well... that's still better than drinking mouthwash!
Steem is not that low yet.
I still bought a case just in... case.
