I am still in my experimental phase (maybe we all are?) with Steem content creation, curation, and bot use. I haven't found my "formula" yet, nor have I decided what I am/am not in agreement with as far as promotion technique are concerned.
I will have to begin researching @steembasicincome to better understand what they do and how it works.
yeah i am right there too, finding a happy balance with a lil bit of income ... nothing crazy or taking advantage of the pool.
well the above info has links and is straight from the creator's "mouth." i always encourage research. trust but verify.
