Yo, don't forget small curators also... As you said, I am so disappointed in some people that left STEEM Blockchain. The same blockchain that literally put their food on the table. I am disappointed once again in myself for trusting some people who I see now, are following (possible) money by bending a bit more.
It's funny, as soon as the upvotes stopped, a lot of people started chatting in discord server, sucking up to dlive team.
I just took a step back, ate my popcorn and watched the reactions of some people. And I am glad I did it. I saw a lot that I didn't see before.
Even tho DLive helped me on my Steemit journey A LOT: I met few great friends, I got my rep up a lot, got my SP up a lot, ... But, it was not a tiny fraction of time that I was thinking about leaving STEEM!! NO fucking WAY! I know that this is what Steem gave me through dlive, not vice versa.
Fuck, I am getting mad writing this so I am going to stop and thank you for being REAL - something that people forgot to be as soon as money comes around.
I hope to see you on vimm soon, the community is already doing great work...
First man, then businessman...
Edit: + you should tell them something seriously about your account there. It's just a awful way to try to motivate people there, as they are probably in dreams so thex need to keep them in that state of mind..
