Good luck with the new projects, Eric.
I can relate. My feelings toward Steemit have changed over the years (sometimes positively; sometimes negatively). On one hand, the surface can seem fake and insincere. On the other hand, once you meet the people behind the keyboards face-to-face, you realize there is a really special community working hard to make this place great.
I think growing pains and fatigue are inevitable, but I'm glad you're back with a clear vision.
Thank you, Wade! You're so right about the human-to-human connection factor being so valuable. All along it's been a community of caring and like-minded individuals working together to make Steemit great. Some of the best moments of my life originated here.
