who needs promotion-services if you have dolphin-, orca- and whale-friends. ;)
How do you make those friends do you think? Delegating to a bot or working your arse off to encourage engagement and retention?
For those who don't know the answer to this question, I am repeatedly told by larger accounts that they are watching out for those who are working.
The choice is yours people, turn your influence into dust or make an effort to put things right here.
Do you think I sneezed and this post was done? I'm working my arse off for nearly every post I make. And if I don't, I won't promote it.
Promotion for me is a way to share important information and to reach new users, who are not following me yet.
If other people are abusing this promotion system, then that's their responsibility. And if they abuse too much, they get blacklisted. And this is the responsibility of the promotion services.
I make friends, regardless of the wallet-size. And there are people who prefer your way and there are those, who don't have the time or need to socialize as much and who prefer my way.
I'm not sure what you think I'm doing the whole day - but developing the technical and business side of all my projects, writing blog-posts, designing thumbnails etc etc. is taking a very big chunk of my time.
And socializing as a way to have people curate my posts, is simply not an effective option. It's nearly 2 am in the morning for me and since about an hour ago I found the time to socialize, comment on comments etc.
If you found your way to be successful on Steem - that's great. Even amazing. But don't enforce your ideology on other people - especially in a decentralised social network.
With that said: have a peaceful night!
Thank you kindly sir!
With all being said I will gladly enjoy a beer with you at the festival.
Buenas noches a ti.
