Hey there, @sharingeverybite!
Great to see you back on here again! And yes, if only we could show them what things were like a few short months ago! Your words are so insightful and so full of value. I just hope the new users can make it through the "grind" and build up their following. We did so they shouldn't have a problem by implementing similar strategies!
I hope you and @shenanigator are doing just great and look forward to meeting you guys again at the next Steemfest! YES! :)
It's a tough pill to swallow, that's for sure! But hey, the resilient will dust themselves off and try again. Then, they'll be able to laugh at the beginner days. :)
So glad to hear you're going again! We are beyond excited to have (what is sure to be) another incredible Steemit experience!! STOKED!
