I so~~~ can relate to this. The only reason I use it sometimes is to chat with my friends to arrange going out and so on.
Even if I only get a few cents for a post on Steemit it is more than I have ever got on FB.
at least you did - not a cent here.
Before I even joined Steemit, I was on an FB diet.
Somehow, that selfietitis and popularity contest has found its way in here but there's more content that gives people value.
Congratulations with your 8k SP and I wish you all the best to reach your 12K SP goal. Cheers!
I hope your eye soon recuperates - it's very important for a photographer.
Thank you. I'm pleased you get it.
I think to some degree we will always have a popularity contest since we are social animals and it is programmed into us.
I think it is still better on Steemit and the general value of the content is better. Perhaps that is because the great masses have not yet come but I also think the curation has a role here too.
Thanks for your good wishes.
