Another recommendation post, I don't mean that I'm a negative sense, I agree with what you said, but being on here for over a year or so it still feels like when posting its a digital lottery ticket. I see a lot of great content on here and those creators get nothing or barely anything. I read more on hard fork 20 today and I hope it helps the functionality of Steemit. Over time it'll get better and better. I also hope the people who are creating good content catch there break at some point it'll keep the community thriving for even more quality content. Thanks for sharing. Have a good day and Steem on!!

That's true as well, though pretty much everything in life tends to be some sort of a crap-shoot. I actually consider each post to be like a stock option, or "lottery ticket". You just never know which one may "hit it big". So many factors apply, such as time of posting, who's watching, what people are searching for, etc.
And I can't tell you how often I've authored posts that took days to assemble, with what I considered invaluable information for those who took the time to read it, and it gained almost no traction. However, others posts that I literally threw together in 20 minutes, sometimes unsure if I should even post it, takes off like a rocket and earns more than my last 10 posts combined!
Moral: Yeah, it is all a crap-shoot, you just never know, so write about what you know, what inspires you, what you enjoy, and hope for the best... And over time, you might start getting more and more "pleasant surprises" come along your way! :)
That's true, being at the right place at the right time. Or rather posting at the right time. Thanks for your response. :)
