I totally agree with you, especially those of us tgat started with .001 cent a post to build it up to $3 a post from day one. The struggle is real for most of us and gaining support from those swimming above is tough work. I posted 2x a day for 7 months straight and it is exhausting. However this post of yours is my favorite because it is our home and the ones who stay through the hard times and not always making a lot are what make Steemit unique. Congrats on your success!
The secret sauce to Steem, and any platform for that matter (seen 8-year-old youtube channels with thousands of videos and a total of 200 views) - is comments. Comments are far and wide the best use of one's time if said person's goal is to accumulate connections. I can almost without a doubt say if you spent as much time on your comments, like this one, you would see much more fruit for your labor. Cheers
